More Homemade Herbal Gifts!

A few years ago, we gathered all of the posts together in one post (it will be the last link given in this post) so that it would be easy to find great projects for making gifts and decoration.  That was years ago though, and so we pulled together some that were written since then, to add to the list!  In case you're wondering, yes... this is exactly the sort of thing you might find in our magazine or compilation books, but here's a fantabulous sampling:

This one is particularly fun to do with young'uns.  Crewel needles aren't very sharp.
Or follow the general directions to make many different herb and fruit jellies.

Original list where you'll find many other crafts:
