A Handmade Christmas

This year for Christmas, I wanted to make as many of the gifts as I could. I had special ideas for all the girls on Jesse's side of the family and I love how each one turned out! I just wish I would have remembered to take photos of the recipients with their gifts! But luckily I did remember to take pictures before I gave them :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jesse's mom recently purchased a home! She had the fun idea to name her new place "The Hen House"...I love it! So I made her a sign that is perfect for her new home :)
I cut it out of wood with my laser and made the wing a separate piece. I painted the wing orange (to match her kitchen!) and engraved the words on the wing. I then glued it together and added a hanger on the back. She loved it!

For Jesse's sister-in-law, I made a large 8x10 picture frame with all their names on it. I put their last name on the top and all of their first names along the bottom. This frame matches their other home decor perfectly, so she loved it :)
For Jesse's other sister-in-law I made a super cute Double Name Album! Of course I had a lot of fun making this one since it's in my favorite colors :)
I did a mix of fun/summer/party pages as well as couple/love pages. It turned out great and of course, she loved it :)

Did you make any handmade gifts this year? Tell me all about them!

One of my favorite quotes/sayings is:
Live~Laugh~Love

I've always loved this saying and have it adorning my home anywhere I can :) I'm particular that the wording be in this order for some reason and will only buy things that have the words this way. (OCD...Yup!) Luckily Etsy knows just what I like :)

Lasered Weekend Update

I love doing these weekend updates! I get to show off all my week's creations in one spot :) It makes me realize how much I got done and how many new things I tried too! Eventually I need to quit playing around and start actually getting down to business! But for now, I'm just having too much fun!!!
Bamboo Coaster Set
White Ceramic Tile...Painted Pink then etched
Two Picture Frames (which can easily be customized)
Agate Slice
(I think these would be awesome! But I need to find ones that don't have such difference in the layers so they laser better. I think I found a supplier for these!)
Wood Sign on untreated wood
Bare Name Albums
(These are selling like crazy right now! I think I have 18 on order!!!)
Question: What should I play with next week?
