    Labor-of-love gifts this Christmas (Part II)

    By iReporter777  |  Posted December 22, 2008  |  Biel-Bienne, Switzerland
     

    This holiday season, I knitted some scarves -- it was my first time to knit (I taught myself how with the help of online tutorials) -- and designed a 2009 calendar (still in the process of making some more) using handpicked photos that I took myself.

     

    I would have loved to create more handmade gifts for my friends and in-laws, but my hands are plain tired right now. And yes, my schedule has been pretty hectic. So, I just opted to just make goodie bags for them (see second photo).

     

    'Heart gifts' are really great. The effort and creativity one puts into making these handmade gifts are truly priceless.
