When it comes to shopping, gifts can be difficult around the holidays. For this reason, countless crafty people opt for sewing their holiday gifts instead of purchasing impersonal, store-bought presents. This winter, simplify your holidays by sewing some of these simple, special projects for your family and friends.

5 Projects to Sew This Holiday Season

Bow Ties

A bow tie is a fun, festive gift for the gentlemen in your life. Whether worn at the office, a holiday party, or some other special occasion, a do-it-yourself bow tie is a classy clothing item—guaranteed to delight the dapper man among your circle of friends.

Stockings

Personalize your holiday gift list with a handmade stocking. These seasonal staples are relatively easy to make and require a short list of supplies. Recycle an old sweater by fashioning it into a stocking to hang up on your loved one’s fireplace mantle.

Scarfs

Keep your friends and family warm this winter with a handmade scarf. With endless prints to choose from, customize it with a pattern that reminds you of your beloved. Ornament the scarf with embroidery or monogram their initials onto the fabric for extra embellishment.

Aprons

Mittens
