Christmas Crafts-Lunchbox

This project turned out to be my favorite.  I am probably going to put a couple of these in my Etsy store soon.  They are unique and really cute.

This was for my sister Kacy.  She is difficult to make something for.  She doesn't need an apron.  She doesn't carry a purse.  I was going to make her a checkbook cover, but that wouldn't have been very exciting to only open that!  So I saw this in my repurposing pillowcases book, and since Kacy is getting ready to start her internship and then stay on at this company, I thought this would be perfect!  It is too expensive to eat out every day so this should help:)



I didn't use pillowcases because I don't have colored ones as mentioned  yesterday.  Kacy likes green, and I have loved this fabric for a while but didn't have anything to use it for.




I just adored this little flower embellishment.  Sometimes the small touches make all the difference!

I am hoping to get two of these made soon to put in the Etsy.  I thought they might be fun for high schoolers who are too cool for little kid lunchboxes or for adults.  They are much more trendy than a brown paper bag!

This is the last of my Christmas crafts.  I am working on Laine's birthday gift right now.  Actually, I hope it is done by the time this is published.  I wrote all of this week's posts on Sunday night and just scheduled them to publish.  What did you make for Christmas???

Shawna! I love love love your Christmas gifts that you made! You are so so talented - you don't give yourself enough credit so I didn't have any idea. I hope you rub off on me soon!! Love,
