It is that time of year when thoughts turn to gift giving with the holidays being right around the corner. For many of us DIY-ers and instructors, this is a great time to start planning projects that can make great gifts. When you want to create a keepsake gift, our Color-Me product line is a perfect place to start, and at budget friendly prices! Most projects come in pack of 6, 12 or 24 so you can easily choose the size that best fits your list! Use your own decorating supplies to keep the cost per project as low as possible, or check out our arts and craft supplies to create that special gift for someone.

Here are a few of my favorites “gift” worthy Color-Me projects for any holiday season.

Color-Me Ceramic Bisque Planters

There are so many ways to decorate this ceramic bisque planter! You can “stitch” cord and beads through holes and/or create a hanging planter by threading cord through 4 holes to create a hanger. Decorate with acrylic paint or permanent markers. Planter is glazed on the inside to hold water. Pack of 12, each measures 4” tall.

Color-Me Ceramic Bisque Plate

This is the perfect keepsake gift for a group of younger kids to make for a special person. You can have put their handprint in the center of the plate and add their name – see our sample below. Or simply have them create designs by fingerpainting or finger printing on the plate. Use acrylic paint for best results, and of course make sure their name and date is on the plate for a lasting keepsake. Each plate comes with a display easel so you can have it on display!

Color Me Ceramic Bisque Mini Bowl

Perfect to catch spare change, jewelry and more, our mini bowl can be decorated with acrylic paints, markers and more. It could even be a tiny dish garden you create for someone special. Pack of 12.

Color-Me Ceramic Bisque Mason Jar

Jump on this hot craft trend with our Mason jar inspired vase. Use acrylic paints, permanent markers and more to create a one of a kind gift for Christmas or Mother’s Day! The inside of the jar is glazed to hold water. Write a message on the bottom of the jar to create an extra special artist touch!

Color Me Pot Holders

A great gift for a baker or home chef! Create custom pot holders with permanent markers. For something extra special, write a simple recipe on 1 side! For kids working on this project, you could have them write their “own version” of a simple recipe on scrap paper first and then have them carefully write it on the potholder. This makes a fun Mother’s Day gift too!

Color Me Canvas Apron

What grandparent wouldn’t love an apron decorated by their grandchild? Our canvas apron can be decorated with paint, fabric markers and more. Pack of 6, each measures 28” x 22”.
