Modpodge a Shadow Box Ornament

At Mod Podge Rocks, there's this amazing tutorial on how to make a shadow box ornament. I, for one, love shadowboxes. You can do a Xmas theme as shown, or you can do something more personal for a family member/friend.
Aren't these miniatures adorable?

The final product

Make an Envelope Scrapbook

These envelope scrapbooks make great gifts for your friends and family... (doesn't everything I post on here?) They're a little bit more simple and to the point than regular scrapbooks (which is a good thing in some cases). I made something like this back in high school, they were really fun! The tutorial can be found here. Enjoy!

A Bookmark book - Ingenious!

I love this!
This little book within a bookmark tutorial
is such a great gift idea for the bookworm in your life. 

In this tutorial at DIY Planner
the example they use is a blank "book" bookmark for writing notes in. 
But you can also write your own mini-story, poetry, ideas, or quotes 
in your bookmark to personalize it for your family/friends.

So be sure to check out this tutorial for a cheap but meaningful last minute gift!
