My favorite handmade gifts are either jewelry items (necklaces, bracelets, etc.) or original artwork. Even tiny little art pieces are great for hanging up on some of those narrow walls in your home that are difficult to know what to do with!

I love receiving handmade items. Some that are on my wishlist for this year include, handmade dresses for my daughter, reuseable snack bags, fabric storage bins, any kind of homemade soap (I'll never use store bought soap again), and any kind of handmade plush dolls for my daughter. I could go on and on. Surfing Etsy is something I do a lot this time of year.

Handmade gifts of all kinds enchant me,
I delight at each one, so insightful,
And the ideas and colors excite me,
Each is unique and delightful!

From cards to capes to caps to canvas...and pins to pinecones to pine-scented soap...
I examine and wonder and remain in awe,
Of the joyful things people make with hope!

This poem is written with wishes to win,
and to share my excitement that makes my head spin!

artwork really has an impact on me. I have all of my little brother's and little cousins' artwork on my walls. My friend drew an amazing portrait of my boyfriend and I. It was incredible. I have it framed in my room. Things like that are very sentimental and I love them.
