This year it seems that many people are sewing, drawing, knitting, painting, building or otherwise making gifts to give to others. Could there be a renaissance in crafting homemade Christmas gifts, like we saw in the 70’s and 80’s when Martha Stewart was first emerging as an icon.
A quick search in Trove reveals an assortment of patterns and ideas for everything including gift baskets, personalised wrapping, making Christmas cards, making decorations out of felt, paper and dried flowers, homemade gifts, children’s gifts – things like teddy bears and Christmas stockings don’t ever go out of fashion do they?
If you find interesting or unusual Christmas craft ideas in Trove, let us know because we’ll be tweeting some on @TroveAustralia!
