Homemade Christmas

For girlfriend Christmas gifts, W. made jointed  cardboard animals from a book we got in St. Louis, She also made scented soap with little toys embedded in them.

L. made framed descriptive words for each of her girlfriends. We used thrifted tiny frames and old dictionaries. She decided on a word that fit each friend and cut it out of an old dictionary. We dabbed Modge Podge in a line around the word and draped a piece of colored thread in it to highlight the chosen word and appropriate meaning. Trim to size and insert in a fun frame.
