What would Martha do? My attempt at completing the crafts in Martha Stewart's Encyclopedia of Crafts

So my friend bought these Dove chocolates with Martha Stewart inspirational sayings. There are some great tips on how to organize and thrifty ideas for crafts. I thought I would give you a sample of them

"Present candles in a dish lined with shredded paper"
"Give your favorite cookie recipe, along with a fresh batch"
"Wrap holiday gifts immediately after you purchase them"
"Decorate with doilies-natural stand-ins for snowflakes"
"Display seasonal fruit for an unexpected holiday centerpiece"
"Fill stockings with gifts inspired by a single theme"
"Layer white tissue paper over bright colored wrap"
"Turn old toys into nostalgic tree ornaments"
"Send thank-yous within two weeks of receiving a gift"
"Assign serving platters to each dish on the buffet table"

Great tips and ideas for the holidays and for everyday life. I just thought I would share with you some inspiring words of Martha!

***Project update*** I am still in the process of acquiring all the materials needed to complete this and I will officially start this thursday with the first project. I will announce what I will be doing on Thursday as well.

P.S. I love the fact Martha had a pole exercise routine on her show. I think it took her guts to do that and I give her big props for doing so!! Goooooo Martha!!!
