Christmas is that time of year when everything seems magical – lit up trees, sparkling garland and homemade ornaments – all of it works to create a festive and memorable ambiance.  But no Christmas, or Christmas crafts, would be complete without delicious baked goods (glass of cold milk optional).

As I worked to assemble the latest edition of the Quick & Crafty newsletter, I wondered if there were any Christmas crafts that incorporated my enjoyment of Christmas treats with my love of Christmas crafting.

As it turns out, I’m not the only one that thought it would be a good idea to mix sweets with Christmas décor.  Check out the following Christmas crafts that are perfect for the Christmas crafter with a sweet tooth!

1. Yummy cupcake Ornaments
   
2. Candy Cane Santa
   
3. Candy Ornaments
   
4. Crochet Candy Cane Steering Wheel Cover
   
5. Gingerbread Birdhouse
   

For more great decoration ideas, read Christmas in July.  And if you haven’t all ready, make sure you sign up for the Quick & Crafty newsletter for weekly updates.  From now until Christmas, every Monday issue will be devoted to Christmas crafts.

Happy crafting!

I know it’s still early, I mean, it’s only July, but Christmas will be here before you know it. My fiance and are finally moved into our new home and the one thing that’s on my mind is getting our first Christmas tree. Christmas is my favorite time of year; it’s such a happy and cheery time. I’m already trying to think of Christmas decorating ideas. I know I shouldn’t be thinking of all this because I should be looking at ways to decorate the house now, not for Christmas.
