Here's a few of the Christmas gifts I did for family and friends this year! I didn't get pictures of all the gifts I made though. Sad I'm still waiting on a few pictures to be sent to me as well.

First, my Christmas gift to my bff Kate. Her and I have this sick and twisted humor that intensifies when you put us in the same room. She always talks about poop. Types of poop, how we can make poop smell better, etc etc! So I thought this would be a good idea for her: Stuffed poop (I used the Happy Poo pattern) and a Toilet Paper scarf (I got the idea for this from a few other craftster posts on here, and came up with my take of the pattern on my own)



Next is the bag for my boyfriends sister. I posted this in another post, but here's the picture!



Next, the gift set for my boyfriends parents. His mom has her ENTIRE kitchen decorated in chili peppers. So I thought, "What better to make than things for her kitchen!" Both are my own patterns and design. The hotpad is my favorite. The base of the hotpad is single crocheted with two strands of black yarn, with a red boarder. I winged the chili pepper, believe it or not! I had no idea what I was doing, but just going with the flow! I just sewed that onto the hotpad and vwala!
The mug cozies are just bright red yarn with green zig-zags at the top, and attach at the sides with a chili pepper button from Jo-Anns Smiley





Next is Belle. I made princess dolls for my two little cousins, and they will continue to get more dolls for each christmas and birthday that comes. I used a pattern I bought a while back when I made one for my sister, and just adapted it to Belle. The hair was probably the trickiest thing for me to keep in place (Rule #1: Hot glue can fix anything)





Next is Jasmine. Again, in the set for my cousins. Again, already posted on this so here's the picture Smiley


I'm still working on a few more late christmas gifts for people, and, believe it or not, I'm getting ready to start working on gifts for NEXT Christmas. The time span I thought I needed, I didn't have!
Hope you all like these! C&C's are welcome!!

The whole poop thing....I can totally relate, as I work in a hospital with a bunch of equally sick-minded co-workers...and I would not have it any other way!  (they are all about the bodily functions)  I really love your Happy Poop doll. But, one has to wonder: what on earth did that person eat to have blue-flecked poop! 

Thanks for the giggle!
