DIY Homemade Stationary Kit: A Lovely Gift Idea

I don't know about your house, but in our house, we have a letter writer. E-mail...yes...she will e-mail, but give her a good old fashioned letter any day of the week and she is content.

So for Christmas I decided that I would make Ceesa a stationary kit for her homemade gift from me.

I started by gathering a blank card set, half sheets of paper, and lots of my scrapbooking materials: letters, tags, borders, shapes, cut-outs, stickers, and embellishments of every kind: buttons, beads, ribbons, etc. 

Then I decorated envelopes, papers, and cards.

Ceesa loves to make her own cards and letters too, so I included boxes with bits of notions along with blank paper, cards, and envelopes.

I tied the sets that I made up, so that they would stay put.

I tucked in the notion boxes, finished papers, cards and envelopes, the blank papers, cards, and envelopes, and pens into a box.

It appears to be a hit!

She made a card right away.

ABC Fairy Tales

One of Jo-Jo's projects was to make her own fairy tale alphabet book. She copied passages from The Alphabet of Fairy Tales and illustrated her pictures with beeswax crayons.
