My Christmas shopping is just about done and I can officially say I bought nothing at the mall this year. :) I stuck to Etsy, Amazon, local small business, and my personal favorite--DIY!
Every year I like to make something edible that I can give to my assistant at work and my grandpa/other people who are hard to buy for. This year I tried out this great Five Bean Vegetarian Soup Mix recipe from Back to Her Roots.
The tutorial called for a quart size jar, but I bought pint sized and cut the recipe in half. Of course, this required me to use the very sophisticated program Microsoft Paint to fix the instructions on the printable. But it did save me some money, so I got to make a lot more gifts. :)
I also trimmed the budget by using washi tape I already had for the spice packets instead of buying labels. All in all the project cost about $2.50 per gift. Not too shabby! And I love the way the turned out. My favorite part is the layers of colorful beans.
I hope you're wrapping up your holiday crafting and enjoying the season! If you need some last minute ideas, stop by this post and check out my suggestions. Until next time, happy crafting!
