Some More Cost-Saving Christmas Ideas

So if you hadn't guessed, I'm trying to stick to a budget for Christmas spending. It's going well, and I've met a lot of the goals I've put for myself. Franco on the other hand...money just slips through his fingers! Just kiddin. I've had a lot of time lately to devote to my "talents" and thought I'd share them with others. I can't show all of them because I may spoil the surprises for some people, but here are some Christmas presents I made for friends:

Cookies! I love to bake
Cookies-in-a-jar: Old-time fave and easy to make
Unfortunately, my talents are messy...
I'm also painting, drawing, crocheting, and designing~ moral of the story: put your talents to use!! It's cheaper :)

That's such a good idea. Too bad I am an infamous procrastinator (hence I buy all my presents in one swift day of shopping a couple of days before the event). But I would love to try and be as creative and economical as you!
