oh, what it is to be unemployed during the holidays! due to the ultra sensitive economy, the dollar must be stretched as taut as possible. this yule will be more handmade than ever! the good thing about being unemployed is that i will have ample tyme to make all (mostly) of my gifts. :) here are my ideas for a handmade christmas:

• homemade chai tea
  • none of that premade boxed or liquid nonsense!
• knitted hats
• knitted scarves
• hair goodies
• cross stitched tea towels
• ink drawings
• tree ornaments of felt and sparkly goodies
• mix cds of christmas classics
