CHEAP AND EASY DIY CHRISTMAS GIFTS

Hello everyone! :)
It is that time of the year when we start to decorate our homes and enjoy the pre-Christmas atmosphere.
The smell of warm wine in the air, cold pinching our cheeks while we snug even more in our scarves...
Gorgeous.
But it is also the time of giving and thinking about those who we love the most.
So here I have a list of gifts you can actually do on your own! And what better way is there to show someone that you care for them than the gifts in which you invested your time and love?


HOT CHOCOLATE OR COCOA KIT

Really great for a friend,family, that special someone or really anyone!
All you need are:
* jars or tubes
* cocoa or hot chocolate powder
* marshmallows, cookies, sugar,candy or anything else you like
* a ribbon or festive rope
* if you want you can include some other winter or Christmas decorations







SHARPIE MUGS

Remember that not all Sharpie pens are great for this DIY. Only oil based ones will not wash off.
And even then I would avoid washing them in the dishwasher.
* Just take your clean and dry mug and draw whatever you like( you can use regular pen first and then
   go over it with a sharpie in the colour of your choice).
* Then just bake the mugs in the oven for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. If you are still young, call your mom    or dad to help you with this step.
* Let it cool




DIY CANDLES

 All you need for this is:
* ordinary candle in the colour you want
* jar, bottle cap or china cup
* a candle wick
* sequins or other decorations
Melt the candle, put the wick in the container, pour while still hot ,decorate and it is done. Ask your parents to help you if needed.



SIMPLE BOOKMARK 

 You need 3 things:
* a paperclip (best to use the huuuge ones)
* ribbon or paper
* glue



That is all for me now. I will definitely do one of those DIY gifts so make sure to check my Instagram account to see how I did :)
