    Today, Lauren from The Thinking Closet  is here to share her round-up of 25 Handmade Gift Ideas! Lauren is a fellow CFL blogger. We worked on the children’s home office volunteer project together, attended Haven (see photo below), and attended CFL Blog Con together. Plus we chat via email, text, and Facebook! I’m super greatful she is here today to share her round-up of 25 Handmade Gift Ideas!

    ————-————–

    Greetings Sew Woodsy fans! My name is Lauren, and I am tha-rilled to guest post here today. I blog over at The Thinking Closet where share all things crafty and d.i.y…and yes, I even include the messes, too. (Gotta keep it real, yo.)

    Katie and I both happen to live in Orlando, Florida, but believe it or not, we didn’t get to meet face-to-face until Haven Blog Conference in Atlanta last summer. Since then, we’ve been to Florida Blog Con together, gave a local Children’s Home office a total makeover, and co-planned a baby “sprinkle” for our friend Rachel. I love it when blogger friends so quickly become real life friends.

    So, since Katie is on maternity leave bonding with baby Jasiewicz (as well she should be), I thought I’d pop by to share a round-up with you of some of my favorite projects. And not just any ole projects, but my favorite D.I.Y. gifts!

    Spring is such a season of gift giving, isn’t it? Between baby showers and anniversaries, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, the celebrations never stop.
