Easy Like Sunday Morning: No. 25

You know how much I love good gift packaging and with Christmas right around the corner, it’s the perfect time of year to load you up with as many handmade packaging ideas as possible. This little felt tray is really simple way to give handmade goodies to friends and family.

The stars of the show here are the stiffened felt and the Heat n Bond Iron On Adhesive that I picked up from Joann Fabrics. Together, they make this project completely “no-sewable” which is a dream for crafters like me to wait until the last minute to assemble gifts!

I’m partnering up with Joann’s to share this easy gift idea with you as a part of their #MakeIt GiveIt campaign. You can win a $100 gift card to Joann Fabrics by simply posting your holiday craft project onto Instagram using the #MakeItGiveIt hashtag. Easy. You have until December 25th, so start sharing! Joann’s will pick 5 winners and announce them on December 30th. You can check out the official rules here. And as a bonus, all entries will be featured on the Joann Fabrics  Make Gifts Merrier Holiday Hub!

So let me show you how this is done:

Easy Stiffened Felt Tray | Damask Love

Easy Stiffened Felt Tray | Damask Love

  1. A hot glue gun – as always, I use THIS one
  2. Stiffened felt in your choice of color
  3. A ruler – I love my Martha Stewart foldable ruler
  4. Heat n Bond Iron-on Double Sided Adhesive
  5. Scissors
  6. A black marker
  7. Quilting Fabric in your choice of pattern
  8. (not pictured) you’ll also need thin ribbon for this project. I opted for a gold, glitter ribbon for an added bit of holiday glamour

Easy Stiffened Felt Tray | Damask Love

  1. Cut a 9″ square piece of felt and use your ruler and marker to draw lines on each edge as shown
  2. Use the hot glue gun to adhere ribbon at each corner as shown
  3. Adhere a square of quilting fabric on top using the iron on adhesive to bond the two layers together
  4. Pinch each corner to bring the ribbon together
  5. Tie the ribbon at the corner
  6. Repeat this at each corner to make a tray

You can fill this little tray up with yummy homemade goodies and the presentation is perfect. If you’ll be transporting these, a cellophane wrap will help keep things in place.

    Thanks for your content. One other thing is when you are marketing your property all on your own, one of the problems you need to be conscious of upfront is when to deal with household inspection reviews. As a FSBO seller, the key about successfully transferring your property as well as saving money with real estate agent income is expertise. The more you are aware of, the smoother your property sales effort will probably be. One area in which this is particularly crucial is reports.

    Thanks a lot for the helpful write-up. It is also my opinion that mesothelioma has an very long latency phase, which means that the signs of the disease won’t emerge until finally 30 to 50 years after the preliminary exposure to mesothelioma. Pleural mesothelioma, that is certainly the most common style and influences the area round the lungs, might result in shortness of breath, upper body pains, and a persistent coughing, which may cause coughing up blood vessels.

    I have realized that in unwanted cameras, exceptional sensors help to {focus|concentrate|maintain focus|target|a**** automatically. The actual sensors regarding some digital cameras change in contrast, while others make use of a beam involving infra-red (IR) light, particularly in low lumination. Higher spec cameras from time to time use a mix of both devices and may have Face Priority AF where the camera can ‘See’ some sort of face while focusing only on that. Thanks for sharing your opinions on this site.

    Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!

    I have seen a lot of useful things on your site about desktops. However, I have got the viewpoint that netbooks are still more or less not powerful adequately to be a good selection if you normally do jobs that require loads of power, including video modifying. But for web surfing, word processing, and majority of other typical computer functions they are just great, provided you cannot mind the screen size. Thank you for sharing your opinions.

    Thanks for the tips you write about through this web site. In addition, a lot of young women that become pregnant do not even aim to get medical insurance because they have anxiety they might not qualify. Although some states now require that insurers give coverage despite the pre-existing conditions. Rates on most of these guaranteed plans are usually larger, but when with the high cost of health care it may be any safer way to go to protect your financial potential.

    Based on my research, after a in foreclosure home is offered at an auction, it is common for the borrower to still have any remaining balance on the mortgage loan. There are many lenders who aim to have all expenses and liens paid back by the subsequent buyer. Having said that, depending on specified programs, regulations, and state legal guidelines there may be quite a few loans which aren’t easily sorted out through the shift of lending options. Therefore, the duty still remains on the lender that has got his or her property in foreclosure. Many thanks sharing your thinking on this weblog.

    Thanks for your article. I would also like to remark that the first thing you will need to conduct is determine whether you really need credit score improvement. To do that you will have to get your hands on a copy of your credit profile. That should really not be difficult, because government mandates that you are allowed to acquire one free of charge copy of your own credit report annually. You just have to request the right men and women. You can either check out the website for that Federal Trade Commission or perhaps contact one of the main credit agencies immediately.

    Hey there this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding expertise so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  40. 10.5.25

    Thanks for your tips. One thing really noticed is always that banks and also financial institutions know the dimensions and spending behavior of consumers as well as understand that many people max out and about their credit cards around the getaways. They wisely take advantage of this fact and begin flooding a person’s inbox and snail-mail box together with hundreds of Zero APR credit cards offers soon after the holiday season concludes. Knowing that if you’re like 98 of all American open public, you’ll leap at the one opportunity to consolidate credit card debt and shift balances for 0 rate credit cards.

    One more thing. It’s my opinion that there are many travel insurance web-sites of trustworthy companies that permit you to enter your trip details and obtain you the insurance quotes. You can also purchase this international travel cover policy on-line by using your own credit card. All you should do should be to enter all travel details and you can see the plans side-by-side. Merely find the program that suits your allowance and needs after which it use your bank credit card to buy the item. Travel insurance online is a good way to search for a respectable company for international holiday insurance. Thanks for giving your ideas.
