    To make a usable spoon, do the wood burning on the handle, towards the end (so the burning doesn't wear off with use)

I have a large head to finding a hat that fits well is challenging. I just cut my hair really short and live in a really cold place so I was overjoyed to find some hand knitted new hats in a thrift store that fit perfectly and they are saving me from freezing this winter.

    Wood burning is totally food safe! Rub in some food safe oil (cutting board oil for example-found at any hardware store) let it soak in/ dry overnight and it's good to go! Reapply the oil ever so often, depending on how often you wash, and that will keep your wood beautiful!

    To keep your finger knitting even, you can pull your loops over a piece of dowel, a ruler, even a piece of fabric to keep them all organized and keep the loops all the same size. For a very chunky knit, you can even hold all the loops on your arm! I love that you shared a knitting project for people who don't have all the tools already!!

    I LOVE the cutting board idea. I would probably make a loaf of homemade artisan bread (or pumpkin, banana or zucchini bread would work also), then maybe find a small wooden bowl (add initials or word) and fill with either a creamy whipped herb butter, whipped cream cheese or honey butter for sweeter breads.) Actually, I think I WILL do that for Christmas presents. :-)

      @@jessicajordan680 Absolutely you can. I actually spent last week baking (I kid you not...) 1,500 cookies for our Christmas tree lighting party at church. Here's the crazy thing...I'm sitting here planning more baking this week. I literally will be baking pumpkin bread and doing a little container of cream cheese frosting for anyone who wants to smear it on. This is why Drew's cutting board idea is so perfect. :-) I was actually also thinking about making some either homemade baguettes or ciabatta, then fixing a jar of bruschetta to change things up a bit. Maybe making some homemade mozzarella to go with it -- and there you are...a fun, edible present.

      Well I don't think I'll make a video but what I did was this:
      1. Look up cocktail recipes online and .put them in Canva, edit it to be nice and fun (Also made a cute little cover) Download and edit the sizes in Word (I made them one cm smaller in width and height that a regular card). Now print.
      3. I had some (brown rectangle shaped) cards at home, you can use any color.
      4. Choose a nice order. I used dubble sided stickers to stick the recipes - on all 4 sides I put one recipe.
      5. Just stack the cards on top of eachother and use a hole puncher to put two holes in and bind them together with a ribbon. Make sure you have enough room for the holes when sticking on the recipes otherwis you punch the recipe.
      I used normal paper but "luxurious" u can maybe use picture paper
