Hi, I’m Natasha Nicholes from Houseful of Nicholes. How can I help?

There is not one single “definitive guide” collected in a book or master post, but holiday gift-making on the blog shows up in a few key ways:

  1. Edible gifts in jars – like the homemade hot chocolate mix, packed into mason jars, tied with raffia, and finished with printable “Cup Full of Cozy” tags (in red or winter blue). Those pair beautifully with homemade marshmallows as a simple, from-scratch gift set.
  2. Cookie-centric gifting – the annual #HousefulOfCookies hop is essentially a cookie-gift playbook: dozens of cookie recipes (from Jan Hagel Dutch shortbread to Slow As Molasses Cookies and toffee squares) you can bake for swaps, hostess gifts, or tins. The focus is on approachable recipes with personality, not just standard chocolate chip.

If you want a “definitive” version, the best approach is to pull together:

  1. The homemade hot chocolate + marshmallows post for jar gifts
  2. A selection of #HousefulOfCookies recipes you love for tins and platters

Would you like a step‑by‑step plan to assemble a complete holiday gift basket using those pieces?
