Christmas<\/strong><\/span> is a few short days away! If you’re in need of some easy, inexpensive, handmade<\/span><\/strong> gifts for the girls<\/span><\/strong> in your life – whether little or all grown-up! – then you’ve come to the right place! This round-up includes nine awesome gifts<\/span><\/strong> that any girl would love to get!<\/p>\n

*Note: You can find all nine ideas on our \u201cSaturdays with Shandy\u201d board on Pinterest<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong>!<\/p>\n

Did someone say scrapbook paper?!?!<\/p>\n

\"paper<\/a><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The adorable DIY Dry Erase Board from Leah Marie V<\/a> is so cute, and so useful! The shabby chic DIY flowers give it an extra feminine touch. You can use this for a hundred different things, and customize it with scrapbook paper that fits the style of the person you’re creating it for. This would be great to leave notes for your family, or to jot down what you need to pick up at the grocery store!<\/li>\n
  2. The Scrapbook Clipboard from KaeliElyse<\/a> would be a great gift for any girl on your list, and would come in handy on a daily basis! Just like the dry erase board, you can customize this with your choice of scrapbook paper!<\/li>\n
  3. Aren’t these pens super fun? I found them at Chocolate on My Cranium<\/a>! You can make these to match the clipboard! Or make all three a matching set! What a great gift that would be!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    What girl doesn’t love hair accessories and nail polish?!<\/p>\n

    \"beauty\"<\/a><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. This Headband Organizer from Lyssa Beth<\/a> (tutorial found at Make It My Own<\/a>) would be great for any girl with a love of hair accessories! The best part? You can put all kinds of barrettes, ponytail holders, bobby pins, and clips in the inside! I am definitely making this for my daughter!<\/li>\n
    2. How cute is this play on words?! For Your Mistle Toes! Such a creative idea from Carissa Miss<\/a>, and she has a free printable!<\/li>\n
    3. Make those ugly bobby pins cute with this tutorial from Colour Me Everywhere<\/a>! A simple, inexpensive, and fantastic stocking stuffer!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      And the last three fabulous gift ideas…<\/p>\n

      \"gift<\/a><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. How amazing are these Coffee Cozies from The Sitting Tree<\/a>?! I can think of at least a dozen people I could give these to, and I know they would be LOVED! I’m going to knit one for myself, too!<\/li>\n
      2. Shhhh! Don’t tell my daughter, but she’s getting one of these Friendship Bracelet Kits from Tater Tots and Jello<\/a> for Christmas! I loved making friendship bracelets as a kid, and now my daughter loves them, too!<\/li>\n
      3. I received a personalized hand sanitizer bottle for Christmas one year, and I absolutely loved it! I can tell you these would be a big hit with your child’s teacher! You can also use soap bottles! Either way, put a classy monogram inside, and this would be a welcome gift for anyone’s home! Be sure to check out the tutorial at The Idea Room<\/a>!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        I have to go and get busy<\/span><\/strong> making all of these wonderful handmade gifts (and a few for myself!) I hope you found some of these ideas to be excellent as well! There’s nothing like handmade<\/span><\/strong> for the holidays! Thanks<\/span><\/strong> for joining us for Saturdays with Shandy: Christmas Edition! It’s been a lot of fun<\/span><\/strong>, and I can’t wait to get started on our next<\/span><\/strong> series!<\/p>\n

        Have yourself a merry little Christmas, and may you be blessed abundantly in the new year!<\/p>\n

        Love & {Christmas}<\/span> Blessings,<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
