How To Make Gorgeous and Frugal Christmas Wood Projects

Once upon a time I made things for Christmas. Lots of things, pretty things, white things and pink things. I designed things and had them made by several different seamstresses. I sewed things and painted things.
I sold lots and lots of these ‘things’ and started…

doing that first on eBay in the late ’90’s and then on my website. Up until a couple of years ago. You see I have been designing, creating and selling ever since I can recall. I was an art major in college and since money was scarce for my parents beyond paying my tuition and a place to live. I had to make my own money for anything extra and selling my art was the way to accomplish my lofty and youthful goals…

I started hand painting clothing and although obviously this non digital photo is nothing short of faded beyond faded, you can sort of see her little cotton dress. Not the best of the work, but I don’t have a lot of pictures to share. I started a VERY successful clothing line called Pour It On Productions and did it all myself…from a little studio beside our home and was pulling in about $1K a week selling to stores and doing shows.

I got burned out making things for others and now I just make things for me. For my home. For the blog. Mostly I’m enjoying this crazy job of mine that is blogging and being a freelance photographer and social media “influencer” or maven. A gatherer…and today I’ve gathered 20 GORGEOUS projects for you if indeed you enjoy creating CRAFTS AND DIY. For you, or to sell…
