Every year I promise myself that I will plan ahead and make all my Holiday gifts early.  And every year, Thanksgiving rolls around and I've made not a one.  But this year I'm going to!  And I'm going to start with these plant stakes, my plan is to make a bunch and keep them in the shop for visitor treats and neighborhood resident gifts.  I keep an eye out at thrift stores all year for the stainless steel skewers, I have a large pile saved up, but most big box stores sell them too.

This one takes a little longer, but is a great stocking stuffer with a lip gloss and face mask.  Give loved ones a little self care treat!  Not into cosmetics? Leave the mirror off and a scented candle will fit perfectly into the fused in dip, or use as a little custom tea time saucer, pair with herbal tea and a fancy spoon.

For the gardeners on your list, this one uses fusible decals and a battery powered votive to make a decorative bottle lantern.  This is a great way to use those bottles that are just too pretty to flatten!
