Handstamped Gifts Revisited

Two years ago I received a Pottery Barn catalog that had some really pretty sheet music candles and paper stars. I immediately thought how easily I could re-create them with the Early 1900's Music Background and a few supplies. In addition to this being an easy project, it is an inexpensive project. The candle I used below was from the dollar store. You can't get too much cheaper than that! I shared the project 2 years ago and it was a hit. I figured all the new followers might appreciate it too. You can find the original post with the directions right here.

A set of these candles in different sizes would make a wonderful gift or even just a single one wrapped in cellophane and a pretty bow.

These origami stars are easy to fold up and look so pretty filling up a glass vase or cannister.

Logo Stamps

If you are planning on giving some food gifts for the holiday season then the Logo stamps might be right up your alley for some unique packaging. The Logo stamps have a empty center for you to customize using the Treat Word sets or with your own handwriting.
