I like to plan way ahead of time for Christmas. I have noticed a few others, who mainly give handmade presents during the holidays, who start even earlier than I, and stash them away in a rubbermaid tote (which I think is a great idea).
I've done everything from sewing shirts and quilts, to knitting baby toys and even stockings (newlywed BIL). Last year, we assembled gift baskets of snacks, drinks and a book/DVD according to each family member's likes (impractical for shipping, btw).
This year, I'm on an ornament kick. LOVE THEM! My niece and I have already made some heart-shapes from clay. And there are so many cute tutorials online and at the craft stores.
I was wondering if anyone has any cute and/or classy ideas for ornaments? (Maybe even organize a swap later on.)

I often find though, that a lot of the pins are just repins of other repins. Generally I use it as a place to keep ideas, while I continue to find other ideas. :)
Lots of my ornaments lately have been ideas from Pinterest.

I use it as it was suppose to be used, a pinboard to hold all the stuff I see, so I don't have to keep it on my computer. It is GREAT for that!
