Creative Christmas gifts for under $5!

christmasdiy1 copy

I have heard a lot of people say that this will be a no-present Christmas.  And although, I know it’s not all about the gifts-it’s about being together.  I know we all LOVE giving and receiving during the holiday season.  So, I say, make this an affordable handmade Christmas.  These will be gifts that will mean something to ones you love and won’t break your bank.  I wanted to share projects for everyone in your family this week.  Starting with your young, fashionista/hipster.  These socks are inspired by the fall Mui Mui runway and I am using the directions from Carbon Couture.  Keep in mind, this is all to inspire, you can change colors–add more details or less…it’s up to you and what you think the receiver would LOVE!:)

All you need are:

Craft Sequins ($.199)

Seed Beads (ours are ONLY 99 cents!)

Bugle Beads 99cents

Knee Socks-Find ones that work at your local dollar store.

Scissors

Needle & Thread

It’s all under $5!

Another accessory for your little one that is less than $5 from our friends at Martha Stewart!
