Christmas Shopping Done.

Tweet

I don't buy presents for many people during Christmas. I only buy for my parents, sister, brother, my siblings boyfriend/girlfriends depending on how long they have been around (If they haven't been around long then I just attach my name to whatever my parents get them), my grandma, my boyfriend, and one friend of my best friends from college. I am proud to say that it is only October and I am done with my Christmas shopping for this year. I got my sister some shirts and this cute little sign that has a funny saying on it. I got my brother some pants and a gift card to Red Lobster and his girlfriend some scarves and a bath set from bath & body works. I got my grandmother a coffee mug from my college that she can drink tea out of or eat soup from since she doesn't eat enough for a real bowl & doesn't drink coffee. My friend from college I got a set of 6 Lush bath bombs & a alien coffee mug. For my dad I got him a 21' laundry reel for the camper, Ozark 30 ounce tumbler, and a shirt that says My Favorite Child Got Me This Shirt. For my boyfriend I got him a WWP shirt, Under armor socks, Under armor underwear, Under armor basket ball shorts, a fish fillet knife, Ozark 30 ounce tumbler, and a tactical flash light. My mothers is the gift I am most proud about because instead of buying it already made I made them myself. I made three mason jar oil lamps. I bought one mason jar that had a handing top to it and it had words written on it life dream, family, believe, faith, etc. We already had some mason jars at home from when my dad decided he wanted to try some alcoholic beverages that needed to be frozen, so I just used two of those. So the other thing I had to buy was the wicks, red white & blue striped burlap, and a hot glue gun. I drilled holes into the top of the lids and put the wicks in. Then on the two smaller ones I wrapped them in the burlap & hot glued them to it. It isn't very fancy or very straight but they are very cute and I know she will love them. Now the only thing I have to buy for the jars is the oil for the lamps which I can order off of Amazon later. I was going to up load a picture of them but I forgot to do it before I wrapped them in paper and taped them up in a box and put them to the side to be wrapped later on when it is closer to Christmas time.
