Homemade Grape Jelly Recipe dineanddish.netI know it’s way too early to start talking the holidays, but if you are thinking of making homemade gifts for your friends and family this year, NOW is the time to get a move on. I’m sorry to rush you, but if you are anything like me you have grand plans for a homemade holiday and then December comes around and you realize you have ZERO time to be able to create something.

This is my first year owning a Silhouette Cameo, and I’ll be honest with you… I’m still learning how to use it, however, I hope by the time Christmas rolls around I’ll have some mad Cameo skills and will be able to rock out some awesome gifts for friends and family! There is nothing quite like a wonderful, homemade gift from the heart to make people feel loved.

If you don’t own a Silhouette Cameo or Silhouette Portrait, I have a quick promotion to share with you that will give you HUGE savings on the machine and some really great accessories (like adhesive labels to add that special touch to your homemade gifts!).

    Yikes! Not ready to start thinking about the holidays yet, but you are so right–if I want to go homemade, now’s the time to start planning. Love the beautiful labels these make. Thanks for the gift inspiration and special offer!

      I’m not either, at all, but it will sneak up on us before we know it!
      Thanks so much for your comment. Erin!

    I have to be honest, I’m not a fan of grape jelly normally, but that looks so good. You would think I’d have some professional set-up with all the jars I have and the book, but labeling remains one of those things that still vexes me. I am still doing them all arts and crafts style, scissors and crayons. 😉 Your labels turned out great: cute, clean, professional, and personalized.

      I like homemade because you can control the sweetness. I think store bought grape jelly is too sweet, personally, which is why I don’t like it much! But homemade… I love!

      Thanks for the kind comment on my labels. It was a labor of love until my friend Heather stepped in and showed me what I was doing wrong!

    This is the first ear our grapes have produced enough to make jelly. This is just the recipe I have been looking for.
