A Homemade Christmas – #9 – Adventure Pouch
December 18, 2008
Welcome to the ninth A Homemade Christmas! This is week Nine of Ten (you don’t have to enter in each one). I hope you’ll join us in sharing about homemade gifts that you have received or made — past, present, and future!
You can click here for the Introductory post.
An adventure pouch is the perfect thing to take on a walk or while searching for little treasures. The size is just right to hold special small things that don’t want to get lost.
As a gift you can place some tasty little treats inside, or even another homemade gift.
Early tomorrow morning I will post a step-by-step tutorial on how to make one.
Announcement: There will be one extra week of A Homemade Christmas. On January 1st I will post a wrap-up AHC where you can post about the homemade gifts you received and the ones you were keeping secret until Christmas. I’m looking forward to it and I hope you’ll tune in and post about yours, too!
Have you made or received any homemade gifts? If you’d like to make a post about your homemade gifts, you can sign Mr. Linky below. You can add one of my Homemade Christmas icons to your blog by clicking here. Each Thursday (until the end of December) there will be A Homemade Christmas post! Hope you’ll join in the fun as we learn, inspire, and encourage one another!

While living the life my Lord has blessed me with, I am at home with my family enjoying being a daughter, homemaker and artist. My highest goal is to give glory to God and enjoy Him forever. It is He that has saved me with His amazing grace and is continually molding me; to Him I owe everything. Read more . . .
It looks like something from Narnia. :)
I can just imagine a wee little guy carrying his little animals in that. Really, I can imagine a lot of different uses for that adventure pouch. Looking forward to seeing your tutorial for it.

Miss Emily,
That is SO precious! :)
I need to make one for everyone in our house. When we go for walks, we are constantly finding tiny treasures to take home. (Often they do get lost) Something I wish I had done from the beginning of all my walks is pick up something small and write the date and where I was when I found it on it. Not only would it tell me when I got it, but how many “adventures” I had gone on.
Your pouch is a very neat idea, I can’t wait to see the tutorial. :)
Miss you,
Marie :)
Hi E.
If you didn’t want to carry a frog in your pocket, you could carry it that cute little pouch.
Love, Auntie Lou
Hi,
You don’t know me but, I’ve been enjoying your Homemade Christmas posts since a friend told me about the cute purse give away!
The pouch is darling!
Hello Emily,
We got your Christmas card today.
Anna came up and showed it too me (I was still in bed)and I was thinking “why does this card look familer”?:)I love the picture of you and your sister. There will probably be a disagreement on “who” gets it:)
Have a blessed day!

That was agreat idea! I will have to make one for my brother he is a lways going on hikes through the woods and finding neat little things. This would be perfect for him to keep his stuff in.
Blessings,

Very cute. We made one of those a few years ago for a VBS thing for walking in the land that Jesus did. I look forward to your tutorial. You’ve done a lovely job with your meme. I’m glad you got so many to participate.
HUGS!

So cute! That looks like a simple projest for even littler kids.
Thank you for your comment!
Love you!!
Love,
Miss Hannah
What a fantastic idea. My kids are always handing me little treasures to bring home (rocks, leaves, acorns, flowers), so it would be neat for them to have their own little pouch to keep their goodies in.
Thanks for sharing!

What a cute little pouch! :)
I just found your blog….I look forward to future readings.
Your photography is just beautiful!
Blessings,

such a great little pouch – my girls have so many treasures!
Very cool Emily!
I am a little sad that I didn’t get to participate much in this meme… I hope you are doing it next year! Glad to see you are doing one after Christmas too, since I have several Christmas gifts I’ve made that I can’t wait to share!
Lots of love and HUGS!
