Homemade Stocking Fillers

This year I thought it would be a nice idea to make a few of the presents we gave to family and friends as well as each other. For the children I have been thinking about ideas for gifts to add to their stocking.

I have searched through the Kid Blogger Network and found some amazing ideas which I though I would share with you, They may not all be the sort of thing you would put in a child's stocking but may make great homemade greats for grand parents. I can not wait to get started crafting some of their ideas to help pad out the children's stockings and its a great idea for saving money.

 With money being quite tight this year what with me being on maternity leave I have been looking for as many ways as possible to save on present buying. For certain family members and friends we have agreed not to bother this year as they are also feeling the pinch. I have cashed in any food vouchers I have saved through out the year to spend or looked for discount vouchers from Netvouchercodes.co.uk and I have shopped around to see if items can be brought cheaper else where or even second hand for the children.
