Homemade Cottagecore Holiday Gifts
The holidays are here and it is time to get into the gift-giving frame of mind. But if you are like me, it can feel a bit hollow just giving things bought at the store or online. Don't get me wrong, I still love me some cute stuff from the store and in my last post I even shared several cottagecore holiday gift ideas that you could purchase (or ask for) this holiday season, but today I am sharing holiday gifts you can make! Because what is more cottagecore than homemade? And really, who doesn't love a thoughtful homemade gift?
Also - soooo sorry this is late! I have been dealing with a flare-up and went from ahead of schedule to behind for like 2 weeks overnight. Such is the life of the chronically ill!
Homemade Cottagecore Holiday Gifts
Garden Starts
Whether it's herbs, veggies, or flowers, for an indoor or outdoor garden, garden starts are a lovely and thoughtful gift, especially if you grew the seedlings or plants the seeds originated from. But even if you hit up the local garden center and pick out the plants, seeds, and pots, it is still an incredibly thoughtful gift for the green thumb on your list.
Fire Starters
Food You've Preserved or Made
Dried Mixes
Similar to the item above, dried mixes like soup, cocoa, pancake mix, or dips are fun, shelf-stable gifts that will bring a smile to your loved one's face whenever they whip up a batch of your famous hot cocoa. Be sure to include how to prepare everything and any storage information with your mixes. (This is also a great way to use up old sauce and pickle jars for items that do not need canning.)
Knitted/Crocheted Items
Scarves, mittens, hats, blankets, all things of warm! These are perfect winter holiday gifts because everyone loves being cozy and snugglely once the temps drop. Even if they look less than perfect, the thought and care you put into the gift will show.
Until next time, my lovelies!
