last minute Hanukkah gift ideas

With Hanukkah less than a week away, I've got a few DIY last minute gifts to share with you, and the best part is you don't have to go to the store - just download, print and make!

MAKE YOUR OWN PHOTO PAPER DOLLS
First up we have printable paper doll kits that you can customize with your own photos! Make one for Mom or Dad, or make a family set for some laughs and fun at gift giving time!

I have illustrated these dolls with fun retro heads so they are ready to be played with right away or you can follow the easy instructions to add your own photos! Quick and easy!

Dolls can be printed onto cardstock and they will stand right there on your desk or shelf. But you can also make them magnetic! Here's a cute little photo of my friend Amy's son Alfredo. Amy printed her dolls onto magnetic paper and now they can play with them on their fridge!

UNIQUE GIFT CARD HOLDERS
My favorite go-to gift idea is the trusty gift card. But why not make it more exciting by using a fun gift card holder? I've got a couple for you!

My paper wallet kit can be used as money or gift card holders and this kit also comes with printable chore coupons too! Just fill out with your chores to have a complete gift.

The kit comes with six wallet designs included! You will have something for everyone and any occasion, year 'round. These were a big hit with my nieces!

Cash area of the wallet fits a variety of currencies: US dollars, Euros, English Pounds and more. Wallets fit inside an A2 envelope so you can send it in the mail. For more photos and info on this kit visit my shop here!

Another great way to give a gift card is in a Cassette Tape gift card box! This kit comes with boxes in FIVE colors. Actual size of a real cassette tape and illustrated on all sides for a fun, retro look.

Cassette tapes fit wrapped candies, mini candy bars, gift cards, business cards, and other small goodies! Comes with a removable gift card tray that fits inside! To take a closer look, visit my shop here!
