I don’t know about you, but for better or worse I’m a last minute kind of person. I tend to work best under pressure and when faced with a deadline can suddenly be more productive in one hour than I was all week. As a result, I’ll be spending much of my weekend making a few last-minute DIY gifts for my family (because, you know, we’re on a budget!) In case you’re in the same boat as me, here are a few of my favorite DIY toys that you still have time to make:

2. The Little Theatre: Bleubird
3. Felt Dress Up Book: Swoon Studio
