We are scaling back this year for Christmas so all I am giving is bath baskets and mix baskets. I do need to find some more kids gifts for my closet. Garage sale season will hopefully yield some good stuff.
Let's see, without looking I'd have to say:
garden tote with tools
floating candle set
5 or 6 jars of herbal foot soak
several pencil cases
address book
several picture frames
body lotion
several beanie babies
a couple of lockets
several baby banks (this is my standard baby gift)
a book on Billy Graham
recipe cards
I am kind of low right now. My wives group started a birthday basket and I filled it to start. Time to hit some clearence sales.
Ok here goes then.....
This is a list of the stuff I have for what ever I need gifts.... No name on them at this time......
23 roseart art sets....bought 4/1.00 @ Target 2 years ago , did have 51.......
Lots of candles..... I paint and decorate them...have about 35 ...
Lots of baby items...new.... I keep them in a steamer trunk and it is full !!!!
18-Lamps that look like hippy VW Vans/buses... These are cute...about 14 X 8 inches... Great in a retro or kids room... Bought a couple of weeks ago at Meijer for $2.00 each... Original price 39.99 I bought them ALL .... dd is giving some of these to friends for Christmas.........
I do painted light bulbs.... Some stained glass some hippy type, some with that gloppy look on them..... I have 11 bulbs done and have the lamp bases that look like stars ...I have 70 bases.... These I got at Target after Xmas.... They were 90 % off so they were 49c .... The store manager let me have them for 24c each since I bought them all.....
I have lots of Misc lotions, powders, ect and a ton of baskets..
41 mason jar oil lamps.....
18 calico rag Xmas trees...for the kids Teachers for Xmas ....
There is more but I can't list it all.....
I craft for a living, when I buy this stuff I buy big... I can ususally sell just a few and pay for all of the rest...... I have an 1,100 sq. foot crafting center in my basement...... Lots of space for my stuff...... I think this is an OCD...

Don't come here, heaven.
I don't even have a CLOSET... let alone a gift closet! LOL
You girls make me jealous. I haven't even thought of Christmas gifts yet. All I know is I am making Jar Mix Baskets... 1 for each household (family gift).
I think I am going yard saling this weekend... my first time in ages. Hopefully I'll come up with some goodies.
