As hard as it is to believe, the holidays are almost here! Halloween candy has been on the shelves for over a month now at the supermarket, and warehouse stores already have Christmas decorations for sale. Despite the deluge of commercial goods available, I think we all are feeling cost-conscious this year, so why not make some gifts instead of buying them!
Jewelry is an excellent gift to give and one which is always appreciated. It can be worn year-round which also adds to its attractiveness as a gift. It can also be extra personal if you incorporate a photo or a particularly poignant quote into the piece.
Besides, making the jewelry, alone or with others, is just as fun as giving it. You can create lasting memories with your children by having them help with some of the designing and simpler steps (under adult supervision of course).
