10 Quick and Easy Handmade Gift Ideas

1

30 Minute Easy Chunky Crochet Beanie

I’m so excited about this beanie from Persia Lou!  I had one like it a couple of years ago and lost it. (so sad!)  Now I can’t wait to make this one!

I’ve only tried crocheting once and it was like a shark trying to ballet dance. Howevs, I’m going to give it my all so I can make a slew of these cute beanies!

Here is her video, but be sure to visit her post and see the detailed instructions.

Glitter and DecouPage Clipboard

I made this wild thing clipboard a while back and think it would make a fun and zany Christmas Gift!  It’s super easy to do and takes only about an hour to make.

DIY PAINTED WOOD PLACE MATS

DIY Glittered Pencils

Giving personalized pencils is one of my favorite things to do! Add some glitter and off the bling-charts you go!

I get my personalized pencils from Oriental Trading Company.  They are great pencils for a great price.

Gift giving doesn’t have to be super complicated or rough on the wallet.  It really is the thought that counts and I think handmade is more thoughtful than anything!

I hope you got some great inspiration for your handmade gift ideas! What are you giving this year?  Let me know down in the comments below!
