While we're waiting for Ashley to pee, take a peek at my christmas gifts I made!

Remote control holders:
For my mom, to match the living room

for my dad, to match the den (realistic leaves)

For my m-i-l, who loves anything native american (these are feather "smudge sticks" used with insense)

for my DH, to match the office. With realistic sweet peas

Ha, ha! One for me, too! This is for my sewing scissors and accessories. Realistic scarlet runner beans:

top view:


I also made some device charger stations. For my DH I had to make his oversized to accomodate his PDA charger base. Blue sweet peas to coordinate with our bedroom:

For my sister, pink sweet peas on a much smaller station (devices are just for the picture--to show scale):


I also made my dad a tray for his wallet/keys (with bear):


And my mom will get this stuffed magnet for the dishwasher:


Yes I made everything pictured here! It's suede or ultrasuede covered over cardboard (not the magnet, obviously). I lucked out when I got my fabric at goodwill. It was disguised as skirts!

Oh I LOVE cutting apart clothes for fabric. Is cheaper than the fabric store and sometimes you luck out with some rather unique stuff!

They look professionally done! Awesome!
