Here are a few more handmade gifts, all for grandchildren. Perhaps I can show more tomorrow.
I had posted on my Christmas blog about these cute carriers for the Matchbox®-type cars. My young grandkids all seem to love these cars, trucks and other vehicles and often seem to carry them in their pockets. I had seen this pattern for a
Car Caddy and so I made three of them for gifts. I thought I would share on this blog as well, since I know that not all of my readers visit my Christmas blog.

The front of the caddy is shown on the left; the back of the caddy is on the right. |

The inside of the caddy has pockets and a track for the cars. |
For little girls, I had seen this tutorial for a
Bracelet Purse and really wanted to make one each for my younger two granddaughters (ages 4 and 6). They came out quite cute, I thought, and the girls seemed to like them. I filled them with little boxes of crayons, lip balm, tiny bottles of bubble bath, and so on.

Here is Emily's purse. Emily loves color. |

This shows the green lining. Vibrant! |
 |
Here is Julia's. The lining for hers is a sparkly purple. These are fun because you can do them using fat quarters. |

Julia investigating the contents of her purse. I love her shirt! It's an icy blue and says "Snow Princess". |
Hope you have enjoyed this look at a few of my simple handcrafts!
