Creative Saturday
I'm excited to celebrate the Christmas holiday by giving away a brand new Nintendo Wii Fit Plus. I have the Wii Fit and trust me, the Wii Fit Plus has way more to offer!
Note: This is ONLY the Wii Fit Plus with the balance board and not the Wii Console. You must purchase the Wii Gaming Console to use Wii Fit Plus.
If you'd like to enter for a chance to win, please go here for the rules and the opportunity to enter.
There's also a gorgeous vintage jewelry set that Menopausal New Mommy is giving away. The giveaway ends tomorrow and trust me, it's worth entering! Go here to enter.

Today was spent using thrifty creativity. I found a few gift items for my family from the thrift store. That may sound bad to some but not to us. We all share the belief that it's not the package that the gift comes in that makes it special but it's the giver that gives it that makes it special. I wish I could show you some of the gifts but that will come after Christmas. I've also made a few gifts too.
I also plan to make a candy and cookie platter this week to give out as gifts.
Have you made any gifts this year? Did you have a Creative Saturday?

Our teacher gifts are the same every year. We donate to World Vision, and buy text books for a classroom in a third world country. Which we will do every yaer our youngest is in school.
Our class gifts this year, are homemade bookmarks made from left over card stock from my old job, and some of the millions of stickers that are floating around the house.
We've also been recycling potato chip bags since our municipality had a garbage strike in the summer. I'm in the process of turning them into cute ornamnets. (pics to follow on my blog when they're done)I LOVE LOVE LOVE the love that goes into a homemade gift.
I made a fruit salad-- not exactly creative but it was good.

I made quite a few Christmas cards to mail to friends and family and that was good too!
As for making my gifts this year - haven't done that though I am going to make a house warming/Christmas gift for my friends...a blessing bowl. Got the idea from a woman I blog with -- I'll have to buy the bowl (and thrift will be good for this!) as I don't throw pottery...and then I'll fill it with blessings I've typed and printed from my computer. When guests come to see them they will be welcome to take a blessing and make it for the family and their home. Isn't that a wonderful idea????? Could be a Christmas gift all on it's own.
OK. The truth is that I've been thinking about working on it and it's been packed away for the last four years. A few weeks back, though, you inspired me to dig it out and finish it. I think I'll have it done for Christmas!
Have a wonderful day enjoying the joy of the season!!!
