Actually I'm dreading the pre-Christmas period. I usually want to do everything myself and with my megalomaniac tendencies it becomes overwhelming. Of course, nobody MAKES me do anything, that's all my doing, but well... let's say it's really too much to try to do too much.
Last year I did:
-
a wall calendar for everyone,
-
individual laminated calendars,
-
these Christmas decorations,
- hand-painted/decorated canvas cards similar to
these (except the link is to those from 2008, I haven't posted pics of the 2009 set).
Actually, those painted cards are fun and not hard to do. I don't think I'll make any this year, but I'm pretty sure a wall calendar is a must and, hm, those candle decorations were so addictive... :-)
What I'm thinking about are individual laminated bookmarks, a different one for everyone. That might be fun, too.
