Does anyone have any ideas of handmade Yule gifts? I specifically want something handcrafted. I can knit and crochet basic stuff, and willing to have a go at other crafts as I’ve time to practice.

My friend has recently been going through a hard time so I made up a little pamper bag full of herbs and salts, a new diary, candles and incense, so I don’t really give anything of this nature. I’m perhaps thinking of some decorations for the sabbat/s, have googled though and can only find things to buy. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanking you!! x x

Love the idea of bunting, but may make some for my house first!  Everytime I craft something I love I end up giving it away either as a present or on a craft swap.  I also mean to make another for me but never get aorund to it!

Oh btw, does anyone know how to make dried hedgehog food?  I want to make some for my mum for christmas as she loves them (hedgehogs, that is, not their food!), maybe a house too, depends how complicated and time!
