Homemade Edible Christmas Gifts. Last minute gift ideas that do more than sit on the shelf, they fill your belly!

Edible Christmas Gifts

We love DIY Christmas Gifts. However, often waiting to the last minute for gifts puts me in a place of purchasing and often that purchase is something not from the heart. My last minute gifts become, something I like to call, “Shelf Sitters”. Shelf sitters are gifts that take up room and don’t have a reason for use. I had a lot of these during my years of teaching elementary school.

One of the gifts I always appreciated, especially on busy winter school days, was something that filled my belly during the day. If I was feeling extra nice, those gifts made it home to share with my family. We found the tastiest recipes, some tried and true, for your Edible Christmas Gifts. Take a look at these gift ideas that do more than sit on a shelf!

Thankful for You Gift Tag

As a former teacher, I am always looking for creative ideas for teachers. I don’t have too much wiggled room in the wallet as I have five kids and more than five teachers, but I do want them to feel appreciated. In an effort to not give them something they will shove in the back of an empty desk drawer, I try to do little homemade things that will be used. The school day can be long, especially during the holidays, so I know food is often used (and appreciated!) I made this teacher gift tag for my kids but also wanted to share it with you. Use your Thankful for You Gift Tag for a teacher, a neighbor or bring to a celebration for a host. Enjoy!

Supplies:

Homemade (or store bought) bread or muffins – We used Pillsbury Pumpkin Bread Mix
Fall Ribbon
Twine
Burlap
Parchment Paper
Cardstock
Printer ink

I like to order my prints at Staples. It saves on ink and is only a few short miles from my home. I pick-up at the store, but of course you can upload them online and then have them shipped to your home.

Want to take your pumpkin decorations a step beyond your typical carving? Take a look at this easy Ice Cream Cone Pumpkin tutorial. It’s an adorable idea for an October birthday celebration.

Ice Cream Cone Pumpkin

We got so inspired by our post un-carved Creative Pumpkin Decorations, that we took the challenge as well. While these pumpkins were pretty amazing, we think that we have the most exciting pumpkin yet!

My third child’s (Eli) birthday is in October and I am always thinking of what I can do to incorporate his birthday and Halloween (without it being too scary!) I first made these cute Halloween Spirit Drink Labels, to share with you, plus I put together some yummy Halloween Kids Food Crafts. I wanted to take it a step further with our front door. The front porch has all the Boo-tiful Halloween decor, but it lacks something celebrating Eli’s birthday – thus the evolution of the Ice Cream Cone Pumpkin.

One thing to take in to consideration for this project is it takes time. You will need time for the pot to dry, the ice cream base, and the pink paint to dry. So about three different times where your project needs to “sit” before you move on to the next step.

Ice Cream Cone Pumpkin Supplies:

There are a few supplies needed for this project. I would say the most unique supply is the spray foam insulation. It was not something I had on hand. Keep this project in a well ventilated area. You have craft paint as well as the foam. Adult supervision is suggested for this project!

Ice Cream Cone Pumpkin Directions:

First, protect your area by laying out a piece of newspaper or scrap paper in a well ventilated place. You will want to paint your terracotta pot tan and let it dry.

Once your pot is dry, you will place your pumpkin upside down into your large pot.

If you are doing this with the kids, this particular part is for ADULTS! Please read directions/precautions on your Spray foam insulation can. Put your gloves on and carefully spray a small amount of spray foam insulation around the bottom of pumpkin/top of the pot. Keep in mind that the foam will grow twice the size while it dries. Let it dry.

In a well ventilated area, carefully wrap (or protect) the pot and spray or brush two coats of pink paint onto the pumpkin and dried foam. Let your pink paint dry.

Glue a red pom pom ball to the top center of the pumpkin and a 2” bent green pipe cleaner in the center of the red pon-pom ball for the cherry and stem.

Cut your colorful pipe cleaners into 1/2” pieces and carefully hot glue them to the top and top sides of the pumpkin to look like sprinkles.

Measure and cut your tan pipe cleaners to be the same length as the bottom of the terracotta pot and glue vertically around the pot leaving approximately a 3” space in between.

Next, glue tan pipe cleaners horizontally around the pot leaving a 2-3” space in between to look like an ice cream cone.

To protect your pumpkin, bring your pumpkin outside and spray with a clear coat of spray paint and let dry.

Enjoy!

Thankful for the Hands that Teach Me

We have a sweet and thoughtful gift idea for you this fall season. As a former teacher, I am always looking for ideas and ways to show appreciation to my children’s teachers. I have five kids, so grabbing expensive gifts is not always the solution. I have sent in $5 Starbucks gift cards (with free printable), candy bars (that I picked up in the checkout lane of the grocery store), Redbox codes (also a free printable) or even a small batch of the larger batch of cookies we made the evening before. Whatever the gift, small or big, it shows that I appreciate my child’s teacher and also represents a lot to the younger eyes that are watching.

This season we wanted to give you a free fall gift tag you can use for your child and their teacher. Print your gift tag and attach it to a seasonal soap dispenser. Today we used some of method’s limited edition soaps because they added the perfect color to the season. Enjoy!

You can save these and print from your own computer or we give you step by step directions to save and print at Staples Copy Center.

Supplies:

Method hand soap or a soap of your choice (often Bath and Body Works has seasonal sales)
Ribbon, twine, or other decor
Cardstock
Printer ink

Create your own DIY Halloween Mason Jar Snow Globes. These homemade snow globes go outside the traditional winter craft and convert into a spooky Halloween Craft.

Halloween Mason Jar Snow Globe

We had so much fun with our DIY Hallwoeen Potion Bottles, that we wanted to share with you another creative craft for the October Season. Take a look at these DIY Halloween Mason Jar Snow Globes. By upcycling a few products, you likely have laying around these house, you can have this out of the box Halloween craft.

We had glue and small Halloween decor on hand and a few Mason Jars leftover from our Christmas Gifts last season. At the Dollar store we picked up glitter and clear candle holders (plastic or glass is fine, grabbing a colored or mercury glass candle stick holder could be nice too!) We picked up Vegetable glycerin online.

Below our our step by step directions to make your DIY Halloween Snow Globes. You can step it up a notch. Consider spray painting your tops black. Add some Mod Podge and dip in glitter so your top shines too. Our decor was less spooky with a spider inside, but you could also add a skull or some bones for a creepier look!

Have fun and happy crafting.

Supplies:

Mason jars of different sizes
Plastic or Glass candle holders
Metal spiders (or other Halloween decor)
Glitter
E6000 Glue
Water
Vegetable glycerin (optional)
Craft sticks

Directions:

Carefully glue your spiders to the bottom or sides of jar or glue to a craft stick and let dry.
Fill the bottom of your jars with a couple teaspoons of glitter.
Carefully glue a jar to the top of your candlestick holder and let dry.
Fill your jars with water and a tablespoon of vegetable glycerin.
Screw the lids back on tightly.
Shake and let the glitter fall.

We have a Fa-BOO-lous teacher gift for Halloween. These White Chocolate Ghost Spoons make cute stirs with our Homemade Hot Chocolate Recipe. Enjoy our adorable free Halloween gift tag as well!

Fa-BOO-lous Teacher Gift for Halloween

I was a teacher for a number of years before having my children… my five children. Because of my background, I always want the teacher to know how appreciated she is. I always appreciated it when parents recognized me (even with small gestures) and i want to do the same for my kids’ teachers. Because of my five children, I can’t always be present or who my gratitude in person. There are many ways I have showed it otherwise. I have bought nice quality candy bars during checkout of the grocery store, I have picked up small $5 Starbucks Gift Cards (take a look at our awesome printable there) and I have had the kids write notes of thanks on various occasions.

I wanted to give you all something creative and crafty. We made ghost spoons to gift to a Fa-BOO-lous teacher. We are giving you the FREE Printable Halloween gift tag, so you can make white chocolate ghost spoons with us or you can gift the tag attached to a gift that you choose. It’s your call. It’s yours free for being a loyal reader! It’s our Halloween thank to you!

Supplies:

So there are a number of supplies you will need. We have our recipes down below listing out all the ingredients, but a few things you might ant to pre-order.

White Card Stock (this will be best for your gift tag or sent to the Staples Copy Center.)

White Tulle
