Handmade Gifts are special.
Every year, for as long as I can remember, my mom gives us something handmade for Christmas.
She’s made custom pillow cases and crocheted Hot Pads and beautiful blankets that we will treasure FOREVER.
Me? I try. Every year, I get all excited {often at the last minute} and ramp up to make presents. Then I fizzle and fade like a fourth of July sparkler.
So this year, I’m going to start early. Maybe.
But if I don’t make it all, I’m going to spend my cold-hard-cash on handmade items from some of my favorite Etsy shops, which I’ll be sharing with you over the next month.
Today, I’d like to introduce Ann, from On Sutton Place. Her creations are fresh and beautiful and exquisitely made!
Any vintage-loving girl would DIE for this Flax Linen Table Runner!
