Christmas & Homemade Gift Ideas {New!}

Introducing the brand new Homemade Gift Patterns and DIY Christmas sites from Tip Junkie! {{squeal in delight}}  They are just another way I’m trying to serve you and help you to create moments that matter.

You might have noticed that I’ve haven’t been posting as many new tutorials on tipjunkie.com as I normally do.  Well, it’s only temporary and because I’ve been putting all my extra time and energy into developing these brand new sister-sites.  They are easier to search, easier to submit, and easier to find exactly what you’re looking for!

My new sites have been patterned after Tastespotting and Food Gawker.  If you love to cook and bake they are gorgeous sites that feature the best looking recipes online. For 6 months I’ve been trying to decide on a layout for the new sites. Since I’m not a foodie, I just recently discovered them and at first glance I knew that’s exactly the theory that I wanted to pattern the new sites after.

Please be patient with me as I populate creative tutorials and free patterns onto each site.  I’m announcing it to you a little prematurely as they aren’t quite up to my standards – but I’m dying to show you what I’ve been up to the past few months.  I just can’t wait any longer.  {{giddy}}

Tip Junkie Homemade Gift Ideas & Patterns

The Tip Junkie homemade gift ideas blog has by far the most comprehensive search that you’ll find online for free homemade gift patterns.You can search by person, type of gift, event, and even what it costs to make.  {{jumping up and down}}  I know, it’s incredible!  I wanted it to be really easy for you to find the perfect homemade gift pattern.  This was the easiest way I could come up with to make that happen for you.  I really hope you like it.

You can help me out by submitting your best online DIY ideas and tutorials, if you’d like to. There’s NO login, NO e-mailing, and NO waiting!  The best thing about these new sites is that your submissions will be featured and promoted within a day to a week!  It’s faster, more efficient, and a lot of fun.
