Christmas in July KICKOFF!

first snow, 2008



If you are a regular reader of this blog, you are definitely aware that I have a minor major obsession soft spot for the winter holidays. This year, my quest for bringing handmade goodness back to the holidays took a delightful turn when I started the Holiday Handmade Crusade. Each month, I am newly inspired by the participants creativity, excitement and mutual zest for the holidays.

So, dear blog readers, as July rolled around I realized something. I have been very selfishly keeping all of these wonderful people and their creations to myself! In order to make amends, I am declaring the next week (and maybe some spillage into the week after)...

CHRISTMAS IN JULY!

Each day will bring Christmas-themed posts with content from the participants of the Holiday Handmade Crusade. I hope that these posts will inspire you to make a few gifts ahead of time this year. You have the power to make the holidays special without maxing out your credit card at the mall. Really, you do!

Feeling inspired? If you are moved to post something for Christmas in July, leave me a link in the comments!
