[QUOTE="ctmom05, post: 475187, member: 2901"] My ideas are truly simple because that's the kind of person I am:) I'm making chocolate covered spoons, like the ones you get in coffee shops. I have holiday motif cellophane and ribbon to wrap them with. Those can really be made to look quite festive/elegant. I'm also going to can homemade applesauce and decorate with fabric squares over the lids, for a country look. I enjoy creating in the kitchen. I got a recipe for peanut butter fudge that looks like even I could make it. I say it that way because I've not enjoyed success with fudge making previously, but this recipe looks like a winner; it doesn't depend upon precise temps etc. There's a some other nice homespun ideas on a website that I frequent; [url=http://www.livingonadime.com/category/frugal-living/holidays/christmas-holidays-frugal-living]Christmas | How to save money and get out of debt - frugal recipes - Living on a Dime®[/url]. My budget is limited, but the ideas I am coming up with are things I would feel good about creating and sharing with others. [/QUOTE]
