Pinterest Pretties - Christmas Gift Giving and Making Edition

We all have them. Those Pins we pin on Pinterest that we mean to make but never do? I know I do. I have over 700 things pinned. I keep meaning to make them. I actually have made a few, which is for another post, but these right here, these are the Pins I keep pinning and want to make as gifts... for Friends. So friends, if you're reading this, you may want to forget you have read this because I'm going to be showing some Pintrest Pretties - Christmas Gift Giving and Making Edition! I feel like that should be said in one of those Smash Car announcer voices.

So first up I have found the greatest gift for that friend who loves coffee. Why not make them something fun for their coffee. That's right people, I'm bringing you Elsie from A Beautiful Mess' Make Your Own Coffee Syrup. I have an idea of who this is going to be gifted too, and I know they will love it, especially with all that coffee they drink.

Next up is not a Do it Yourself-er. Its orginially from Etsy, and I know you could buy it, cause that's way easier to do. I know I'd rather do that, but I'm on a budget here peoples, I have to find ways to be cheap... er... homemade with love. :) So I give you the cutest little boys shirt ever. A t-shirt with a little vest and tie. So cute!  You can buy one from this shop or try to figure out how to make it yourself. I bet a little google (or swagbucks in my case cause I like earning free gift cards) search would find a pattern of sorts. I think a few of my littlest Nephews might like this... I mean I guess my 14 year old Nephew might, but I probably wont make him one... cause he's way too cool for me. hehe..

I know a super awesome co-worker of mine who might like some homemade bows.  No directions on how to make this, but I think there was once a tutorial on A Beautiful Mess on hair bow making.... Oh yes.... here it is.

I don't actually know someone who would want this. I know I do. So maybe this could be your gifty gift for me. Otherwise I will probably make it. I bet it would have been cute with my outfit today. Sigh... Oh well.. Guess I'll be making it soon.. Heheh... Peter Pan Collar. How cute! So cute! Love it totally!!!

Apparently everything I Pin on Pinterest comes from Elsie at A Beautiful Mess' blog. Because the next thing is a DIY Canvas. So My best friend got married this past year and I'm trying to give her a gift from my heart. My heart being my frugal-ness and total craftiness.

This last one is a super easy easy EASY DIY project and such a necessary one. Its a super cute survival kit using pot holders. I think my sister and sister-in-laws could totally use these since they all have boys and lets just be honest... Boys are messy. Its a FACT!
