Blog 9: I-Make


Blog 9: Give a summary of your proposal and discuss why you are interested in the make you selected.

 

For the I-Make project, I chose to make Christmas gifts for all my family and friends. I have yet to decide which gifts go to which family members exactly, but I have several ideas secretly pinned on Pinterest. This project was so conveniently placed with the arrival of Christmas, I could not help but choose to create my gifts for this year. I have never been a very creative person, however, so this project will really challenge my making abilities. I am interested in doing this make for several reasons, including the following: I have never done it before so it will be something new and fresh, you can never go wrong with a gift from the heart of your own creation, and it will be much easier on the budget than buying each of my family members a gift worth keeping. A big challenge lies in the decision for what to make for the boys in my family, since they do not typically utilize crafts like girls do. This will actually make this project more interesting, though, because it will really push me to branch out and challenge my own DIY crafting abilities.


This is a link to one of the gift ideas that I really like for all my sisters. It would be simple and cheap, yet a totally chic piece of jewelry for any occasion as long as I choose the right colors.
