It's become a tradition each year -- browsing through About's Arts and Crafts websites and seeing just how many holiday gift ideas we can come up with in one newsletter. This issue has well over 150 gift suggestions and ideas that can be created and even better, most won't take too long.Happy Holiday Crafting!                                                                       |                                                                                           |                                                                                                                                                                         Bird Lovers Love Feeders                                                                                                                       Have you ever checked out buying a bird feeder at the local discount store? They're either plastic, too small or cheap looking, but expensive to buy. All I can say is I wish I had someone who would make me one (or two!) of these for the backyard birds.                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                           15 Gifts for the Guys                                                                                                                       If you're a sewer you already know how much harder it is to come up with terrific ideas for the guys in the family. They appreciate the handmade gifts as much as the girls do -- especially these cool ideas that Debbie has whipped up.                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                           Ice Skating Penguin                                                                                                                       When it comes to the holidays, Penguin designs are everywhere. In fact, I took two pictures of Penguin collectibles this past weekend to send to a friend. I know she would love this cute little fellow done on a card.                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                           Give a Book and a Bookmark                                                                                                                       Eighteen bookmarks to cross stitch! Connie suggests giving a book, along with a stitched bookmark. What a great way to make a book gift a little more personalized and these won't take much time.                                                                                                                     |                                                                         |                                                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                         |                                                                                      Arts & Crafts Ads                                    |                             |                             |                             |                                                                                         Featured Articles                                                                                       |                                                                         |                                                                                                                                   |   |                                                                                                                                         |                                                                                                                          More from About.com                                                                                         |                             |                             |                             |                             |                                                                                |                                                                                        2011's Cutest Winter Boots                                                                                          Snuggly snow boots are essential for women who live in cold climates, but still want to put their best foot forward.
