  4. truebluemeandyou: DIY Felt Acorns. Tutorial from The Gunny Sack here. Beyond idiot proof - you can use material if you don’t have felted wool. These would look beautiful in those Oak Leaf bowls I posted here or in a beautiful ceramic bowl.

  5. truebluemeandyou: DIY Typerwriter Tea Towels. Tutorial at Word Up, Nerd Up here. When I was at Michaels Crafts I was suprised at how cheap these alphabet stamp sets are - like $10 (and that’s before your coupon!). You could make really thoughtful gifts with these and use quotes that are meaningful to the lucky receiver.

  6. truebluemeandyou: Free DIY Bookplates. Many different artists, sizes, genre, color, black and white etc… There is something for everyone. This is a great gift given with an acid free glue stick, or print them on sticker paper (although they are easier to remove - I think - using a glue stick). Found at My Home Library here. *Note: I’d print these on cardstock or heavier paper than just copier paper.
