The Perfect Christmas Gift Projects!

Hello lovelies,

did you know it's only 72 days until Christmas?

First thing to do is not panic, Iv'e got you covered with some great Christmas gift ideas for that special person.


If they are crafty like yourself, they may love making the project themselves. If not, then you can make it for them and surprise them with a delightful personalised handmade gift from the heart.


PROJECT KIT 1 - Christmas Cupboard

The first gift idea is this adorable mini Christmas Cupboard. It's a limited special release by Miss Maple just for Christmas!

This tiny project measures to approx. 9" high & 5-1/2" wide once completed.

The kit comes with a video tutorial and all the cute embellishments.

You will need some paint, glue and perhaps a stamp with ink or a stencil (these last two are optional).


The project can be made within a few hours and can be either hung on a wall, Christmas tree or displayed standing up on it's own.

It's so adorable, you may not want to give it away! LOL


You can find a limited number available in my online shop HERE. (Please note postage is an extra $13 within Australia).


This project is a 'Take Out' (make at home) - bookings are now open to order your own kit from me.

I do have limted kits available - (No back orders or credit holds on kits, full payments are required). First in first served. Thank you.


The kit is $50

plus post -$13



PROJECT KIT 2 - Shadow Box Album Kit

Shadow Box Album Kit - 3Quater Designs Holly Jolly Paper Collection

This is not one but two mini albums stored within a sweet box all decorated with the 3Quater Designs Holly Jolly Paper Collection.


I have followed the original design by 3Quarter Designs as a base, then added my own personal ideas and touches.


The actual box just needs to be assembled, as it already comes cut and scored, (new from 3Quater Designs), so no fussy measurements, just a bit of burnishing with a bone folder and some glue!

The front cover of the Shadow Box has two hand poured resin pieces I have included to add to the finishing touches to this special project.

You can paint them any colour you like. (I have included in the video what I did and the colours I used).

One of the mini album has been designed with pop-up images and the other has little tag pockets for all the beautiful Tuck n Play Cards that are included in this this kit.

There is plently of room for photos and or sentiments.
