i'm dreaming of a HOMEMADE christmas

As I said before...this year we are trying to do a lot more homemade...it is A LOT of work...but so fun!!

These adorable magnets are gifts for Grandparents...each one will have a different saying...they turned out really cute...I am actually selling them at my etsy shop...

I have made a total of 8 capes...4 for my kiddos and 4 for neices and nephews...I love them and I hope the kiddos will too...

I also made power wrist bands... 

Christian designed mugs for everyone in the family (sweet deal at Hobby Lobby...only .87cents!!) 

Excuse the shirtless photos...Nina and Grant painted tithing boxes for everyone in the family...Grant was so careful and particular about his painting...I need to let them paint more often!!  They loved it! 

Matthew is working on some cute bookmarks for everyone...I will get a picture of those as soon as they are done!

Ben and I are still working on a cute kitchen for Nina made out of a nightstand, a nuts and bolts chess set for Matthew, a train table for Christian, and a hammer peg board for Grant...12 more days....YIKES!!
