as i've already bragged about i'm already done with 99% of the xmas gifts for this year but it occurred to me that maaaybe not everyone has magically got theirs done, or even yet started, and perhaps there are some of you that haven't even started to think about the holidays yet? if there is i think it's my duty to share the ideas i have, and the great tutorials and ideas i find. i don't want you to have to sit there clueless and stressed out a week before the big gift giving day, like i have every single year before this. here are some of my favourite tutorials and free downloads, from some of my favourite blogs, that they've shared recently:
* how to use a lightbox and photo editing software to make beautiful photographs from life, craftiness and everything else. why not make one for a friend with interest in photography, or make one for yourself and print the photos you make and give those away?
* the fabled needle has two lovely recipe cards for download. and what a beautiful kitchen!

* a print a day offers a cute bunny notepad download.

* prudent baby has a lot of nice tutorials and craft ideas, and i esp. love this embroidered clock tutorial.

* the storque shares a cute rose petal applique tutorial.

* when my doormat dies (which unfortunately doesn't seem to happen anytime soon) i'm definitely giving elsie's woodgrain rug tutorial a go! i love it!

* i've talked about ruffles and stuff before and i'm so amazed at all the beautiful (though a bit too romantic for me personally a lot of times, but perfect nonetheless) projects this lady shares. if you want to give your loved ones handmade gifts for xmas but don't know what exactly, go to ruffles and stuff! you'll find tutorials to everything from simple but cute pillow ideas to how to turn an old book to a clock and how to make a blair waldorf inspired capelet.

let me know if there is any specific type of crafts (knitting, crochet, sewing etc) you would like to see more projects of. i'm gonna try to make at least a few of these posts up until xmas. i have collected at least a billion patterns and ideas that are either collecting dust in maps on my shelves or on my computer, and i would love to share them with you.

Interesting post... I can see that you put a lot of hard work on your blog. I'm sure I'd visit here more often.
