Craft Fair Idea #11: DEAR SANTA PACKS 🎅🏼❤️ 2019

[@covalyngiles5410]

I think this would be cute to use for Thanksgiving children's gift. The kids could write their letters to Santa and use the other activities to do while waiting for dinner or after dinner.

[@tinacoon6199]

Fantastic idea!!

[@christadeveau492]

I’m just now seeing these from 2 years ago and so much inspiration on new ideas! 😍

[@KStewart629]

The newer white envelope punch boards have an extending arm on the bottom right for scoring bigger paper.

[@deborahlove1987]

Thanks for that info!

[@heatherweed6511]

I think $6 is low also. I would do $8 or 2 for $15. They are beautiful and very, very well done. Excellent job!

[@dianebeaudoin7831]

I love this idea! Thanks for sharing. I went out today (1/3/20) to the Dollar General and those activity for books that were a dollar are now 70% off! I bought a bunch! Only 30 cents for pack of three. I'm going start putting these together and get a real jump on next year's craft fairs. Thank you you for the wonderful videos!

[@inspired2createl.l.c563]

😂 I stopped the video & ran to Hobby Lobby to pick up the Santa letters & I grabbed the puzzles to color instead. Now back to the video. Great video!

[@judypierce7028]

This is the second time that I have watched this video. I just wanted you to know that I made 25 Dear Santa Packs last year. What I didn't sell, I donated to a kindergarten class. The 2024 spring/summer, I chose Walt Disney characters and other topics and made activities for the kids using the paperboys. Being a retired teacher, I also included a book on each topic along with activities that I created. For example, I made a Minnie Mouse Packet with a book about Minnie. The activities for the children to complete are about the book. They are darling.

[@angeewells]

I love your craft fair ideas videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@MamaCrafter74]

I love these! My 15 year old son, who is autistic, loves to give his friends and teachers gifts for Christmas and birthdays. I would love to make these for them for the holidays and their birthdays! I've also been thinking of selling some of my crafts and have been looking for inspiration. This would definitely sell at any craft fair. I can see these with things for teens, moms, dads, or just about anyone! Thank you so much for this video! 😀

[@mikhail114]

I love this! It would be a great idea for a Children’s Hospital. 🥰

[@deborahlove1987]

YES, YES, YES!

[@keniacolon4959]

Hello love it! Where did you find the mini color pencil they look so cute 🥰

[@chrisscarmazzi3025]

Thank you for sharing your God given talents with all of us! I really liked the idea behind this because they are for the kids to be creative. I did make 20 of these for this years Bazaar at the church to sell to make money for the school. Again. thank you for being so generous!

[@donnakillewald9151]

Tuesday Morning sells those Envelope makers like $12.99, give or take. They sell everything.

[@halomom1]

That's where I bought mine! It was a better price than Hobby Lobby with coupon. Plus, they have great Christmas paper at really good prices!

[@LR-rs1en]

Amber, these are absolutely adorable. I can't wait to make something similar. I really love all your craft fair series, and so appreciate the time and effort you put into them. Thank you for so generously sharing your ideas and tutorials. I agree with everyone who says these should be priced higher - definitely 8-10 bucks each. Love your work!

[@deborahlove1987]

Yes, no lower than $8.00.

[@deborahrusignuolo7612]

Great project. Good luck at your craft fair. Thank you for sharing.

[@karenwalker1255]

These are so fun and such a terrific idea for all the kids. Great to gift or sell. Thank you for this idea!!

[@kristaebayless5906]

Out of all the crafters I watch YOU’RE MY VERY FAVORITE! Your projects are clever and the best quality! I don’t know where you find the time with a full time job, but I’m glad you do!!!❤️👏👍

[@stephaniepower5769]

I love your videos. You get right to the project ......no excessive chatter . I love your voice too .

[@Brittleigh2111]

So how well did they sell? I love them so cute.

[@michellechristopher6468]

Hi Amber , these and very nice Santa packs for kinds. I enjoy doing these for my craft TFS 😊 Hope you do well also at craft fairs.

[@tonyabrown6319]

Hello.. I see you have made recipe holders in the past.. Will you ever make them again.. But larger?

[@earleendiprizio4008]

Amber, so cute. I love your ideas and as I have been following you for years, I love your instructions and I know that new followers can't go wrong doing your projects as you have the most clear instructions, step by step, thank you again for your wonderful help with where to purchase supplies, preparing for craft fairs and pricing. Such valuable assets. Have a wonderful season and best wishes for all your craft fairs.

[@danam.6883]

Those packs are Awesome!!! I wish the Dollar tree stores around me had the activity packs. Love your ideas!!

[@colleenciaccio1429]

Try Dollar General

[@maryhernquist1831]

Amber thank you and your sister for the great videos that you share with us, great ideas and the directions are easy to follow.

[@lisalancaster1097]

Wasn't sure what to do with my Christmas paper scraps. What a great project for fairs. Thank you

[@clairegagne6906]

YES, want to see more craft fair ideas. You are brilliant. I love all you do and have so many of your samples made!! You and Bri are great for giving us all the details and that's what I like to see as sometimes its hard to figure out what one has done. TYFS

[@sandrab8908]

These are just adorable, I’m going to make some for my grandchildren and some little ones at my church. Thank you so much for sharing all your wonderful craft ideas . I just love them all !

[@deborahlove1987]

Great idea!

[@tinacoon6199]

For church is awesome idea!!

[@doditomancak5468]

Amber, I just found 30 packages of the 3 pack coloring books!! SO excited to start this project and I will use the North Pole address!!

[@marypikkaraine3962]

I can’t wait to start this project. I just want to share an idea with you in regard to the Dear Santa letter envelope. Hobby lobby has all their Christmas wrapping paper on sale 50% off. I purchased a roll of the craft paper that has Santa and other designs all over it. It works great for the envelope and it is just as thick as the scrapbook paper. I cut several pieces down to 12x12 pieces. Works great!

[@donnakillewald9151]

Walmart always has a great Go Back to School Sale, every year. That’s when I get the 24 pack of Crayola Crayons, for Fifty cents. Then I put on coloring books, story books, and little things, in the packages. Your video is giving me more ideas to put in them.

[@sherryw-ponyluv-er2394]

Super cute. Love the attention to detail.

[@Angela152half]

I think I’ll make some for my grandchildren and my great nephew.

[@jadeswrapsandbraids]

For the envelope maker, check out a Tuesday morning if you have them

[@azwife35]

I wish I lived close enough to just buy these from you! These are wonderful. I think they would be great to buy for kids who have to travel to a relative's house for Christmas - a great activity pack for car or plane!

[@reddragun43]

What a great idea. Thanks for sharing.

[@kari97632]

Such a sweet idea. Thanks for sharing your talents. I've been addicted to your KZbin channel. You do such a great job explaining everything which is perfect for beginners like myself.

[@kkat54]

Love these. Our Dollar Generals have not finished putting out Christmas ...I cant find those activity books.

[@mariannthompson9386]

liked how you showed everything and clear video, loved it all awsome ! thank you

[@lisastankiewicz1926]

Very cute! Do you keep one deconstructed so customers can see whats inside. Id pay more than that!

[@katsspace4688]

Omg...Peanuts!! I just love Snoopy and the Peanuts gang! TFS xx

[@charlottec748]

I just found your channel and I must say I am super impressed with what you've done with this Santa pack. I cannot wait to watch what else you've done. I think this pack can be easily adapted for any holiday, like Valentine's Day or Halloween. So much better than candy.

[@LindaLap]

Amber you have so many great ideas for me to use up my Christmas paper. I have made a bunch of the tea packs to give to friends and neighbors. I am going to try to do a video later today. You are also an amazing shopper. I use to do sales and they were so much. You are so nice to share your ideas. Thank you!

[@gayleecormier6822]

Love your videos! You are awesome. You explain very well easy-to-understand.

[@davejeanettewiersma529]

Oh my, really cute and full of “stuff”: for the kids. Think I’ll send mine out early so the kids can get those letters to Santa. Loving your Holiday series----AGAIN.

[@nottydot]

Hi Amber, These are really nice, wonderful craft fair item. TFS, it is appreciated!

[@scrapnfever]

This turned out very cute! I would also include a mini candy cane as well.

[@Cynphoenix56]

This is so adorable! Love it! And thanks to Juanita for posting Santa's address! So cute!

[@peggye9129]

Adorable! Good luck with the craft fairs.

[@dellaCHall5823]

These are awesome 😊 What a sweet and special gift for children 💖😊

[@aasmith1971]

So cute. Great video your instructions are so good and clear.

[@debsg66]

These are by far the cutest kid packs I have seen! You really put a lot of thought and effort into this. That's a very reasonable price you, might even be able to get more but you know your area better than anybody. Thank you so much for sharing your craftiness with all of us!

[@mafaldamarinho9438]

Hi! I am from Portugal and I was looking for ideas for a craft fair that going to happen at my school (i,m a teacher and i do scrapbooking) and I find your channel. I,m loving everything you have done. I subscribe. I love your work!

[@cathylaycock5598]

I have the 123 punch board which has an extension arm for the longer scoring

[@roxyfur]

Those are adorable, Amber. 6 bucks seems low, though...

[@joyvrolyat]

roxyfur I think so too! You have that thing filled with awesome stuff. Amber you put so much work into them . I am thinking maybe 8 or 10 bucks!!! Your crafts are so well thought out.

[@QuinlanKE]

I thought the same thing. I was thinking $10

[@heatherstone7495]

The sad thing is there are so many that would rather spend $2 on crap than $9 on something that was made with love, time, thought, by a mom/dad, small shop. Our craft fair was canceled because of low attendance. Folks last year complained prices were too high. Some items takes me days to finish just 6. I would say $8 or $10. I want to do this too. I am actually doing a Halloween version for the few teaters we get.

[@vanessal5350]

@@heatherstone7495 thats so sad

[@ellenhofer3343]

$6 ? You would never even break even.

[@mariamcnabb9096]

loved can u tell me where u got crayons? didn't see listed also what was total price you spend each ? $6 should sells out /….good luck

[@halomom1]

They were not crayons. She said they were small colored pencils. I believe there is a link in the description above. 😁🎅

[@lorim6330]

I have absolutely loved all your videos, and you have great tutorials. These have been great for me as I am just starting out with using cardstock supplies; I've always been a sewer and quilter. Thank you so much!

[@cindywilliams3972]

this is so cute!!!!once again you have out done yourself. I am so a fan of yours. I am getting ready for a 2 day show in November. I am going to try and get some made. Thanks for sharing. Cindy/Carrollton

[@lizjordan3076]

I am now seeing this . Great ideas Thanks Amber

[@vickyh7881]

Just curious what craft fairs do you do? I think 2 for $10 is not enough. $6.50 or $7.00 would be even a fair price. Love you & Bri’s easy to follow tutorials.

[@tinasegrest3459]

I love, love this project! I plan on making some for my grandchildren. Plus, I decided to use it to be put in my Fall gratitude journals with a Fall them of course. Thank you for this wonderful idea!

[@tinabowles9163]

Amber great ideas to put in the kids packets I've always wanted to do these. Love all your ideas and Brees and your Momma! Have a blessed week!

[@krystalnebel7304]

I love your ideas. I am going to put together next year a craft fair. How about a teacher one. What would you put it in it or do you have video on it. Thank you for your help.

[@DIYCraftBazaar]

thats so cute

[@amyharris5894]

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these!!! Super cute!!

[@patriciadowd2948]

Amber I love these and I think they will sell well but I think you have priced these to low. You have offered a lot in this and when you include your paper and packaging with all the other items I don't feel like you will make much. I think $8.00-$10.00 would be a good price and you would make a little more money. You know your customer base I do not but this is just my suggestion if I were selling. You and your whole family are so talented and I enjoy seeing everything you make. Look forward to more of your craft fair series.

[@myhoneyscrafts127]

I did a Halloween Activity Kit and those sold at my craft fair. I will be doing these also. Thanks for the ideas.

[@ieflymom]

Tuesday Morning has a good amount of WRMK right now too.

[@mymariakitty]

I love these my 11yr old daughter started doing craft shows with me and shes been following your videos and making stuff. Your tutorials are super easy to follow

[@debraspringers2098]

Beautiful project Amber

[@mmmmlllljohn]

Wow, Amber, you knocked it out of the park - again! These are adorable and kids will love them - your packaging is outstanding! TFS! ❤️🇨🇦

[@stephanieferreira9699]

Too cute! I’m going to make some for my grad kids. Thank you. Great idea. You are so creative.

[@craftyShirleyG]

I am loving all of your craft fair ideas!!! This one is so adorable and doable!

[@geraldinelaliberte7319]

Thank you so much I think this will be a hit for my first craft fair 2024

[@Marilyn1950]

Those are so adorable! Will have to make some of these

[@sherrylbradford2191]

Great video and such a fun project. I have to say - that even for 2019 your prices seem much too low. You've been at this much longer than me - but even with a built up stash, it doesn't seem like you are making much profit - especially the 2 for $10. I hope these sold really really well for you! They are a real treasure trove! I really enjoy your videos. So easy to follow - clear and well paced.

[@diggin-usa3863]

Your crafts are outstanding and priced great!

[@bunnyleeder1756]

These are awesome, thanks for sharing this great project!!!!

[@heatherstone7495]

I love this idea!!! The package was perfect. I kept thinking no its upside down and back...oooohhhh I get it 🤦🏼‍♀️😂. This inspired me to do a Halloween version for our trick or treaters.

[@lindastrandquist2429]

Love it as always. Not doing any craft airs this year. But might consider doing some with my girl guide group as community service projects.

[@lillianmartinez1593]

Love all your projects!! Can't wait until you post your next video! TFS! 🥰🌴😎

[@lhcreations5464]

I have been eyeballing these items and thinking about doing something similar, thank you for the inspiration! Now I’m really excited to put them together

[@ieflymom]

I absolutely love your videos! I’m going to make these for my daycare kids and great nieces! As always, thank you so much for sharing!

[@BuffyLynn]

These are so great Amber! I don’t know why I sound surprised....clever cuteness is all we get from your channel this year anyway!

[@sydneyhumphrey8132]

Wait till the day before or day after to stock up on Christmas goodies at Hobby Lobby

[@doditomancak5468]

Hi amber. What are the measurements on the coloring books? I’ve seen individual ones at dollar general but have not seen a 3 pack. Oriental trading Sales a mini one . 72 mini books for like $15. Also do you have an craft suggestions to do something with little Chinese take out boxes? Thank you

[@sharonschaefer5575]

Those are awesome. Thank you for sharing.

[@2281CozyBrickCape]

Wonderful idea for children!

[@fayejones6740]
