    Easy DIY Christmas Gift Ideas

    Published by Pam Kessler | 615 words. · About 4 minutes to read this article. - 1 Comment

    Over 100 handmade Christmas gift ideas for the holiday season to make this year's gift giving even more personal.

    To me, this year seems to be the year to put a little more thought and effort in to gift giving than in years past.

    Not that I'm normally an order-fruit-baskets-for-everyone-on-my-list kind of gal, but I do tend to buy more gifts than my inner Martha Stewart would like.

    We've got the time this year. Let's make things a little more personal!

    Easy DIY Christmas Gift Ideas

    I've gathered together some DIY Christmas Gift Ideas for you if you are in the handmade Christmas gift mode this year too!
