On the tenth day of Blogmas…
Hello merry friends!
Before I get into today’s post, I’d like to let you all know that I’m feeling a bit under the weather. That’s why today’s post is lower quality than I’d like, and if any posts from here on out are late/skipped…you guys know why. Nonetheless, today I have a collab for you!
Today, I’ve teamed up with Rebekah to give you guys some last-minute gift ideas! I have 5 ideas, and she’ll have 5 more!
Most of these you can make yourself with only a few basic supplies. I’m not going to go into much depth with these DIYs because I’ve been sick and my brain isn’t working right(lol), but I will explain how to make these things.
The last thing on this list will be something you can buy that is a nice gift. I hope you enjoy this list!
First up…food! Who doesn’t love food? A sweet treat can be a great thing to gift to your loved ones. It only takes a quick Google search to find tons of yummy recipes.
I have a tutorial for this one here. I love Christmas signs, and I’m sure that a lot of you can think of someone that enjoys decor. It doesn’t have to be Christmas-themed. Either way, this is a pretty simple DIY and I’d definitely appreciate it if someone made something like this for me.
Know any avid readers? This is the perfect gift…a bookmark! I ordered these wooden bookmarks from Amazon and all I’ve done with this one is drew a design on it with paint pen. (can you tell what movie this is inspired by?) You can come up with lots of different ways to decorate it. I’ve seen some great wood-burned bookmarks. You could also use paper, stickers…anything you want!
If there’s one thing bookworms can never have enough of (other than books), it’s bookmarks.
This one might be a good gift for a parent – a key tray! I just painted this wooden tray from the dollar store(but you can also get them from craft stores), and then I decorated it. I chose to use some leftover diamond dots from another project, but you can decorate it however you like.
Finally, if you don’t have enough time to make something, you could buy some blue light glasses! You could order some off Amazon (these are a good option), or you might have better luck finding some at a store. This is a perfect gift for anyone who’s on screens a lot. (which let’s face it…that pretty much describes a lot of people)
Alright! I hope that gave you some ideas for last-minute gifts! Don’t forget to check out Rebekah’s part of the collab!
Can you believe we have less than a week before Christmas?
I Have 12% of a Plan 
Super fun! I still have exams all this week, so it still hasn’t hit me that Christmas is almost here.

Great ideas, Diamond! I love the idea of making food for people, because there’s usually a recipe online for any type of treat people would like! I had lots of fun with this collab, and I hope you’re feeling better soon!
