Make Heirloom Needle Boxes and Cases for the Holidays

More great things I got at Market in Houston. I bought these Needleboxes, Etc. kits to make Needle Boxes for gifts. I love these boxes.....they are just so cool. Can you imagine the impression made when giving one of these in someones favorite fabrics? I know I would do back flips (by the way...I like green:)
I love the way this one folds out and there are more places for needles inside. You can even label them so you know where each type of needle is stored.


This is a fun little carry all needle book for classes or carrying with your projects.


Here is another cool box. I really like how the extra sides fold down and there are even more sides revealed.


This Prism makes a very neat decoration and it also holds your sewing supplies. Very cool indeed. When the boys get a little older, I'm going to have stuff like this all over my house. I love these beautiful conversation starters. I know my Mother-in-Law loves these things too. Her computer is down so I can talk about this and she'll never know. She loves hand made Christmas gifts.



This heart one is interesting. I'm not a heart person but I still liked how this one opened to expose all the different sides.

What is your favorite? Would you love getting one of these as a gift? I'd be interested to hear.

Smiles,
Kelly
By the way, they are all available at I Have A Notion.

    I used to have a patchwork shop and sold these kits some 20 years ago and loved them. I still have the samples on a shelf in my studio

    These boxes are like artwork, not what I'd consider as typical needle or accessories boxes. Amazing. And I do believe they'd make a delightful Christmas gift. But then a Christmas Tree decorated with these boxes would also be delightful!
