Handmade Christmas.

This year I went a bit mad on a spending spree in work and for this reason most of my treats will be handmade this year. I always think handmade gifts are much more personal and a little something you can keep and remember forever. (Unless its edible of course!) With a circle of crafty friends, handmade treats are often given & received on birthdays & christmasses.
This year I've taken inspiration from a couple of books - 'Chic on a Shoestring' and 'Everything Alice.' I've made necklaces, earrings, brooches, floral corsages & ribbon corsages.
