Haven't begun the Christmas baking yet but I think I better start now. The bags look wonderful Sherry and in such nice colours too. I have no tips for wrapping gifts as I'm a terrible wrapper and use gift bags as much as possible. One of my favourite things to do in December when it's cold outside is to lie on the couch with the woodstove crackling, the cat on my lap and having a snooze.

I did "Twelve Days of Christmas" this year for each of our girls/hubbies, so I first wrapped each in tissue, then sewed a fabric bag around the tissue, and tied and tagged each little sack. My kids already set up this box of goodies I shipped before Thanksgiving! {It's so fun to already be shopping for "Twelve Days of Christmas 2014!"} This is the second time I've done this since 2010, so I'm really enjoying it!<br /><br />I might still be a nervous wreck after reading your husband was three stories up on your roof..............
