Anyone can buy a present, but if you're an Instructabler, we know you aren't just anyone. You are a maker! We want to see what fun gifts you are going to make up to give away this Holiday Season.
We’re also wanting to see creative decorations - anything from covering your whole house in lights to making a nice table setting for Thanksgiving.
Enter your best gifts and decor to win all kinds of awesome prizes, including some fantastic books from Quayside Publishing.
P.S. - Food is only eligible if holiday themed - for example - Christmas tree shaped cookies!
