If you’re in your handmade-gift era right now, this is your sign. 💙

These little beaded pens and bookmarks are so easy to make, and honestly one of my favorite “use your stash” projects for the holidays. A few beads, a charm, maybe a tassel or pom-pom, and you’ve got a gift that feels personal without taking forever.

How a Perpetual Calendar Turned into a Birthday Card - Project Share

How a Perpetual Calendar Turned into a Birthday Card – Project Share

Posted on by Sandi Nagel

Turning a forgotten project into something brand new always feels good… but this one feels extra special. 💖

Remember the perpetual calendar I made with all the monthly tags? I took it apart and turned every tag into a handmade birthday card that will be donated to a local church for their monthly birthday celebrations. 🥹🎂

In the tutorial I’m sharing how I:
• turned the calendar tags into card fronts
• used simple pastel mats for a clean, finished look
• added a pretty punched border for that “inlaid” frame
• used fun foam for budget-friendly dimension

It’s a sweet mix of use your stash + make something that makes someone’s day.

Would you repurpose an old project like this? Or would you keep the calendar as is?

Christmas Scrapbook Paper Collections to Stock Up on During Our Pre-Black Friday Sale

Time is ticking… are you crafting your Christmas memories yet? ⏰✨

This shabby chic card started with my “Once Upon a Christmas” paper collection – soft florals, vintage clock, snowy edges – and then I just kept layering lace, pearls and tiny details until it felt like a little story on the page.

I love using clock images for holiday projects… it’s like reminding myself to slow down and actually enjoy the season instead of rushing through it. 🕊️

❓Question for you: are you team “start early and savor it” or “last-minute holiday crafting hero”? Tell me in the comments – no judgment either way.

If this style makes your crafty heart happy, you’ll find the Once Upon a Christmas collection (and more winter papers) waiting on my website – perfect for cards, junk journals and mini albums all season long.
