I don’t know about you, but I’m getting excited for the holidays! It’s a special time to be creative and spread joy throughout our communities and our families. The warm scent of cinnamon and chocolate layers the air in my home, and although I am never able to create every beautiful item pinned to my Pinterest boards, the idea of someday is enough to keep me happily dreaming.
Among my favorite gifts throughout the season are those handmade and homemade creations. I’ve received many through the years.
A monster cookie jar mix that provided a perfect rainy-day kid’s activity.
A beeswax candle that kept my home smelling fresh for months.
Sachets of lavender tucked within my drawers remained fragrant all year-long.
Delicately packaged sugar cookies, gingerbread men and biscotti to line the dessert trays.
It’s this heart for investing time and love in creating personal gifts that is behind a very exciting announcement!
You’re invited to participate in:
Fresh Market Friday’s
First Annual Holiday Gift Exchange!
Imagine being able to secretly place a special handmade gift or homemade treat on another blogger’s doorstep just in time for the holidays. And then imagine the surprise of receiving an equally special gift from a fellow blogger on your doorstep. How amazing to connect with each other more personally…beyond our blogs!
I believe bloggers are some of the most creative and talented people. This is an opportunity to reach beyond the blog page and share generosity, creativity and inspiration in a tangible and meaningful way. Because we never know how a single gift of love can make an overwhelming difference to just one!
You can join the Holiday Gift Exchange by filling out the form here by November 28th! And be sure to add your link so we can all see who is joining the exchange.
