The Best Christmas Gifts are Handmade

Shopping for Christmas gifts can be a challenge sometimes. We know all about spending countless hours, trying to find the perfect present for our favourite people. Something that hopefully they’ll appreciate.

This is why we’re thrilled to bits that Kitty Cardwell, also widely and fondly known as Mrs. C (of Mrs C and Me fame) and one of Sydney’s best-loved crafters, is bringing the C in Christmas cheer again this year with her famous screenprinting class!

Nobody knows personalised gifts like dear Mrs. C. Buckle down this holiday and handcraft pressies that your family and friends will get a kick out of! Once you get the basics of screen printing down pat, you’ll be able to print your own designs on practically anything - from tote bags and tea towels to shirts and framed canvas prints. And remember, a creative experience is always a fantastic gift to give to others and yourself, too. We really can’t say that enough!

And what’s more, the process of creating something can be a very relaxing and healing exercise. Call it art therapy, if you must; but it’s exactly what the doctor ordered in this season of holiday stress. Maybe you’ll have so much fun making Christmas gifts this year that you’ll be starting a personal tradition! The good news is that Sydney offers a ton of DIY classes and craft classes that you can take to broaden your artsy-craftsy skills.

Happy holiday crafting, this year and every year!
