Besides wearing it, it could be pinned on a stocking, a purse, the visor in your car, or like me. I have it pinned in the center toward the top of one of my valances in the stairway! You can do so much with a pretty brooch! hugs, Ellen Make a YoYo Brooch and attach it to the top of your gift package with ribbon or fabric tie.

My firstborn son would not go along with Chrysti for a 1st name, but will have it for his middle name if we promise him Santa will be leaving a Nintendo DS under the tree...consider it done (for a yarn ornament by THE FABULOUS CHRYSTI!) ~ : ) “Alexander Chysti” has a nice yawn to it!

I will pretend it is Chrysti, if you will send everyone a Christmas goodie! She is 13, and loves art, and she even said she would Be a Chrysti for a day if it would help.

I make up 5 designs every year and I have the components left over from several years. I can kit up enough to make 5-10 cards. The receiver can make last minute cards or gift tags this year or save it to make beautiful cards NEXT year! This would also work for crafty kids and teens because most of the work is done and they get to put it together!

Pumpkin bread with a jar of apple butter from the cupboard, a plate of cookies, or even a bag of hot cocoa mix with marshmellows tucked in a mug. Everything is insta-presentized with a pretty ribbon.

So that won't happen. As for a last minute gift idea, especially if funds are tight... make a coupon book. This is what my brother is getting! Mostly because he always buys what he wants and is soooo hard to shop for. You can include: babysitting, car wash, nice home cooked meal, free art lesson, etc. I read some where that posting on this blog in the comments brings more readers to your blog. I don't know what it is about this womans blog that generates hits, but couldn't hurt to share and try it! http://thepioneerwoman.com/confessions/ Happy Holidays!
