Share this project

Happy DIY-Black Friday!!! There is nothing that I love more during the holidays than making my own holiday gifts and decor! Ok, there might be one thing and that’s shopping on Etsy for creative and unique holiday gifts that I can’t make or don’t want to! Even though the majority of the projects I share here on Something Turquoise are specifically for weddings, many of them can be re-worked for gifts and parties of all type and theme. So today I’ve rounded up the best DIY tutorials I’ve created, that would make awesome holiday gifts! From baked bath salts to painted wine glasses, you are sure to find something special for at least a few people on your list! Happy Crafting!
