You probably have all of your holiday cleaning, cooking, packing and wrapping done. Right?

Well, since we are being honest, here are some last-minute crafts I wish I had attempted earlier in the month. Luckily, these are so simple to whip up, you can really craft a last-minute gift with these free tutorials. Enjoy!

Sewn Paper Candy Pouch

Sugary Sweet: Set the table with a little surprise for each guest. Annie at Peppermint Plum shares how to make these  super-easy candy pouches from recycled kraft paper (or paper grocery sacks).

Upcycled Burlap Ornaments

Wrap it Up: Kristen at A Simply Klassic Home shows how to make dollar-store ornaments rustic and chic with a simple burlap covering and ribbon. So fresh! You could also use this method to wrap odd-shaped gifts, like a bottle of wine.

Holiday Treat Bag Topper Printables

What a treat! These free holiday treat bag topper printables from Angela at Anything but Perfect are too cute and make a quick gift for kids and party guests.

Merry Trees: Dress your table or mantle with these easy Christmas trees made from old catalogs and magazines. No scissors or glue required! Get the how-to from Heather at Our Life in a Click.

Chocolate Party Spoons

Spooning: Make a truly last-minute gift with this idea for chocolate party spoons. Paired with an envelope of hot cocoa, these spoons would make a festive gift for neighbors, friends or family! Get the how-to at Delicious Delicious Delicious.

 

Happy holidays to you, our wonderful readers.

It’s been a fantastic 2011, and we cannot wait to ring in the new year with you!

Hi, I’m Lindsay Conner, an author, modern quilter, editor, and founder of the Lindsay Sews blog. I’m a Baby Lock ambassador and Stash Books author who loves writing modern sewing and quilt patterns for beginners and weekend sewists! I live in Indianapolis, Indiana with my husband, son, and two loveable cats, Murph and Chloe. I’ve been crafting for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I saved my dollar bills for trips with my mom to Jo-Ann Fabrics, where I’d find new floss for friendship bracelets or mini cross-stitch kits. Because my mom has always shared my love for crafting, she bought me my first sewing machine, a Hello Kitty Janome.
