sow07.gif Christmas is hands-on and we found a site — Kaboose.com’s Christmas Crafts — that will show you just how hands-on it can be. It is another winner of our Site of the Week honors.

But we found the Christmas Craft section to be quite compelling. For example, the Christmas Card Box is an idea utilizing last year’s Christmas cards. It’s a fun project that makes festive use of great materials that is easy to make. In the build up to the season we love sites like this. They provide inexpensive, easy-to-accomplish projects that help promote the spirit of the season.

That makes some of the features at Christmas-Town just a little suspect. But if you can get past the obvious bias, you’ll find nuggets of holiday information. It makes of easy holiday reading and we think it is worth a look.
