Make Your Own Christmas Trees - 1966 - KAP Kraft Books
If you are as old as I am you might remember these sorts of little craft books packed with projects. There are lots of charming vintage ideas here for you (the Tin Can Tree) or to make with the kids (frosting an upside down ice cream cone). Have fun, more to come!

Christmas Gifts to Make - 1938 Needlewoman Magazine
Goodness I've been gone a long time! I was working on a big project that I'll tell you about soon. But now it's time to get busy making gifts for Christmas, so here are some ideas from The Needlewoman Magazine, published in 1938. (I've added the instructions, click twice to enlarge...have fun!)
