Amber Kane: Holiday DIY Gifts and Decorations

I'm a big fan of making all of my Christmas gifts. The only problem is that I tend to put it off, and end up doing everything last minute which makes it a bit stressful instead of fun. I"ve really been making an effort to not do that this year, and so far I would say that I"m doing okay. I have my dad and sister- in law finished, husband finished, I just need to determine what I am making for my mom and make it, and probably something for my mother-in- law. And then I have a hand full of little gifts to make for friends, I just havne't decided what I"m making yet. But I feel like I'm moving in the right direction. Nothing is wrapped yet, but I did make some wrapping paper, and am also going to use some of the scarp fabric that I have as paper this year. I normally don't do a lot of decorating one, because I don't have the time to make it look how I want it to , so I just don't try, and two we normally go away over the holidays.

So to help inspire you, I put together a collection of DIY decorations. I'd love to see photos of what you are making. And or some tips on how you get yourself to get everything done on time.
