Book page décor is catching on. We shared this book page tree project from White Waxflower and we’re not the only fans. Paula says: “My friends & i just had a wreath making party this week and 2 of us made the book page wreaths!! Now we have to do the trees!!! LOVE IT!!!”

Custom chocolate bars are a sweet personalized treat. Becki S. made some for her hubby and shared the recipe to our delight. Ellie says: “So inspirational, a more modern take on your Great Aunt’s custom chocolate box, raisins optional!”

An orange, a tealight and cloves are all you need to make a festive air freshener. Rebecca F. shared her take on the Kitchn’s simple project, and asked what you do you warm up your home. Rebecca says: “When the weather turns chilly I make spiced cider simmered in a crock pot on low all day. It makes the whole place smell great and tastes amazing.”

Handmade mementos and homemade food are great gifts for in-laws. They’re tough to buy for, but you’ve found relative success with these items. Amber says: “I always go handmade – one year, I did homemade wine glass charms, another year, I brought back handmade Christmas ornaments from a trip to Prague – this year, I made my own ornaments and will also gift them with homemade yummy biscotti and wine. I’m very lucky that I have such amazing, grateful future in-laws who value quality time and good food and drink over anything material.”

Chic holiday table settings are just a grocery store trip away. Becki S. dressed her table with pears, spices and nuts and we love the simplicity of the look. Clair says: “I love your table. I did almost the same thing as you. I put out solid white plates and I placed on each plate d’jour pear with a few strings of raffia tied on the stem.”
