The Styrofoam peanuts make great garland for the Christmas tree and fun for the kids to do. If any of your holiday purchases were packed with peanuts, save them and then string them together with a large needle and fishing line or durable thread.

I actually did the melted crayons for my siblings using heart and animal-shaped cookie cutters and they loved it! If you have any DIY gift ideas, we'd love to hear! Happy Holidays! Thank you, Jayme!

I love the crayon one, especially since I just cleaned my kid's room and found dozens of crayon pieces. And the books on tape is a great idea too. Thanks for these. You have some of the best ideas!
