Each and every year the same question what to gift your loved ones. For some it is easy for some it is hard but overall I would suggest gifting a selfmade present is the best way to spread joy among your family and friends. A gift card or present from the store is easy to get or quick to order but a DIY gift really means that you have given it a lot of thought and time to make it yourself.

For this years DIY gift I decided to go with ornaments which contain a little „snow“ and our childrens faces. These will be the perfect gifts for all the grandma´s, aunts and uncles. 

How to DIY Snow Globe Ornaments

So this is fairly easy to put together. I got the clear ornaments from amazon and they are pretty decent quality. You can open them on the top.

I add little styrofoam balls to make it look like the inside of a snow globe. Then I try to cut the picture big enough to put it inside and it doesn´t fall over but small enough so the ornament is going to close properly.

After that you are ready, but if you like you can swap out the string for some gift ribbon in the color of your liking.

I love my Uggs, always have always will. Despite what everyone says they are the warmest shoes you could own. I have had the Bailey for many many years in several different colors and now I invested in a pair of platform Uggs. My pair is the UGG Classic Mini in color Sand. They are very versatile no matter what you are combining them with. A skirt, a pair of pants or a dress. And I also love the extra height they are adding. Great for long trousers.

Why you should invest in a gift closet…

…..

(post contains affiliate Links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)

This is a thing I have never thought of while I was younger and kid free. Did not make any sense for me to get random things in case I would forget about an ocassion I needed a little gift or I´d have no time left to get anything. Now many years and three kids later this makes a hundred percent sense to me. There are tons of tiny ocassions you need to have a little something at home like….

– when a tooth fell out and the tooth fairy comes the same night

– when you need a little bribery (for family photos or things like this)

– a birthday party that was sneaking up on you cause your kid forgot the invitation 

– when you didn´t count twice and only had 21 things for your kids advent calendar 🙂

– when you suddenly realized the dinner invitation was today and you have no minute left to leave the house and get a thing

 

What kind of gifts to keep in your Gift Closet 

For the kids:

– I do like to keep little LOL dolls, little Barbie dolls, Schleich animals or little surprise boxes for my girls

– Small games, coloring or scratch books, trendy items like unicorn, mermaid or Gabby´s Dollhouse pieces

For the grown-ups:

– gift cards, cholcolates a nice bottle of wine (we can drink it ourselves if we don´t end up using it)

 

What kind of gift wrapping makes sense to keep in your Gift Closet

– Cards

– Wrapping Paper

– Gift Bags

– Bows and gift ribbon

Wow November was a doozy. I have had so many appointments and so much preparations for December (parties, meal planning, Christmas planning, kids stuff I had to attend to) it flew by so fast I still can not fathom the year being over in less than 4 weeks. Anyways my November outfits have been the creme de la creme of layering and I have loved getting dressed so much. Besides my regular color theme of warm Fall hues you can find some blues and lots of christmassy Reds.
