Personalized Mini Notebooks (for New Years!)

By on December 31, 2025 in Christmas, Gift Ideas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have some personalized Mini Notebooks for New Years goals, positive affirmations, or just writing down some dreams. These are great little gift sets, especially for office supply lovers (like me)!

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

These are super fun to make and to personalize. I made SIX sets of these little notebooks for my family and I used some images that reminded me of them. So have fun and use stamps & stencils that will inspire or represent your recipients!

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

These shaker ornament/tags are really fun to make, and with just a little imagination and creativity…work great as a SHAKER ornament or tag!





I am using the new No Fuss Masks to make this project EXTRA EASY! Watch the video to see how these come together and how ordinary clear tape makes a shaker even possible.

Nail Polish Gifts

Hello! I have a fun Nail Polish project to share with you. I’m making some cute folders to hold nail stickers for my family and I thought I’d share it with you.





I think a video is the perfect place to explain all the details…watch it here or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	






		
		
			
			
		
	





These nail polish bottles are glittery!! When you open up the card, it reveals a little folder holding some nail stickers.






		
		
			
			
		
	





These were fun to make…and I included a little nail file too. Those are super handy when you are putting on nail strips!

Hello! Today I’m up at the Hedgehog Hollow blog sharing this holiday ornament project using Wood U Bend. This is a unique product that is made out of wood, and when you heat it, you can bend it to the shape you want!





Visit the blog for all the details! I also have a video showing all the tips and surprises I found out about this product, watch it below or in HD on YouTube:













I loved making this project, so I hope you’ll take a look and tell me what YOU think about the Wood U Bend. (this was a sample I got in the November Hedgehog Hollow Box).
