Thanks so much for watching and I hope you enjoyed. Leave any future video ideas you would like to see in the comments below and don't forget to subscribe!
I’m not sure how the background music didn’t export for the ending of project 3 😢 It was so magical!
No worries, Drew! I found myself inwardly hearing one of the lovely tunes you tend to use for display moments. And in a way, the silence was nice also! Holiday blessings, and thank you for all you do! Love this channel! 😊💜
Thanks Drew! My husband drinks wine and plays chess, so he'd love either of those gifts! I'll have to see if he's got an electric bolt cutter without telling him why I want to use it. The drill is no problem. I love the candle idea too and my daughter loves candles!
You should do a shirtless video ;)
What paint do you use on the candles that is ideal for heat/fire?
Ring on his finger
Drew, I loved each one of these DIY projects.
Creating handmade gifts like these is far more rewarding than buying something off the shelf.
I know the people close to
me are keenly aware of my time … Giving a gift like this would mean more to them than a gift card … it means… I thought about you… I devoted my time and kept your style and colors in mind… and, I hope you love it … as I love you 💕
Thanks for always keeping it real. RR
13 years, WOW!!! And you keep on surprising us with great content, either diys, decorating, home renovations, just everything!!! Who knows what the future will bring! But we'll be here waiting!😊💞
He is just so so good isn’t he ! I too remember when he was creating thing Foto dollar tree items and of course they too were so cute! Boy hasn’t he came a long long way! I love watching all his creations decor and his Magic!
New here today, what a gem!!
The chess board project is fantastic--great for my friend with dogs who needs hanging space for leashes and collars, and the bookmark for my friends who read a lot and the wine corks and the checkered candles. . . I think you just solved half my Christmas gift list!
The reason it feels so natural and normal to you ( creating ) is because its who you are, meaning its the best way for you to express the divine spark you are . When we all follow our joy, creativity, excitement ( what ever individual form that takes) we are living our true selves. Thank you for being an example of this Drew.
Beautifully said 😊
I can not agree with you more.
I like the fact that your gifts fit any budget. You don’t leave anyone out. Thank you!
Love all your ideas.Don’t ever retire. I just love your creativity. So great to watch and enjoy your videos. Have a great day.
The wolf says the fox knocked it out of the park! Congratulations, Drew on 13 years!
I love the chess board “Coat Check” but if you are giving it to someone that likes chess, learning to play the game so the pieces are actually “in check” (or at least the correct spots on the board) might be a good idea, or it could annoy them. Probably of more importance is to countersink the screw holes on the back, so the screw heads don’t damage your wall.
The candles are inspired! ☺️ I already had some on my shopping list, but this elevates them so much - I’ll have to try it!
the chess coat rack/key holder was genius!!!
Drew - thank you so much for sharing these! They are all wonderful! My husband's family has a "Dollar Gift" (yes, $1) swap tradition and coming up with my idea is always the most stressful (but sometimes fun) part of the holidays for me. All of these ideas could be a Dollar Gift using things I already have around the house but are still really cool and useful! Happy Holidays!
I am so excited that I received my Lone Fox purchases from your holiday store this week. They are beautiful of course but I must congratulate who wraps the items for shipping. Every piece was so amazingly wrapped and secure so that there was no possibility of breakage.
Been travelling overseas for months, so I’ve been catching up binge watching all the Lone Fox videos I missed! Also commenting under a new account. Love seeing how the house is looking a year later. Edit: also wanted to say I love the mix of vlog house & how to videos. Wishing you and everyone a happy Christmas 🎄love the felt bookmark!
I have to admit how much I missed your DIY video last year. I can say this with all honesty, that YOUR DIY projects are the only ones I still have out in my home! The one that gets the most comments is the $.50 plastic bowl and cup (from Target) glued together and covered with baking soda chalk paint. I filled mine with a beautiful green moss and have it placed on stack books! My grandsons love chess, so I will have to make the chess board project you did today for their room!!
Those are some of the best DIY gift ideas I’ve seen on line! Bravo 🙌
Love it! Please do more sewing and embroidery DIYs, I have absolutely been loving these!
Oh my goodness these projects are amazing ! I have been watching you for about 2 yrs I believe, and you're DIY's never disappoint. Thank you so much for sharing your incredible talents. Love & Blessings from Nova Scotia, Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️ xo
Wow Drew. Thank you for sharing this great projects. I love the Reno/ design but also the throw back DIYs. Merry Christmas
These gift videos are how I found you so many years ago and I’ve been blown away ever since!! Hope you have a magical holiday ✨
Happy Holidays Drew. If you add a bit of dish soap, I use Dawn, to your acrylic paint it helps it stick to the candles when you’re painting.
Drew! You are so talented sir! We love you and the only other person that I would watch as much as you is your friend MaCenna!
Love the book mark idea. I have so many people that would be perfect for. And I just love that hand made old world kind of look that they had. It was just lovely. Thank you for sharing❤
I started watching you when I was a freshman in HS and you helped me sm through COVID. Now I’m a freshman in college and still binging your videos 🩷 I love these projects
Love all these ideas 💡 super cute and also super practical ❤
I loved your projects, the lone Fox tissue paper, and especially seen the fire behind you. It really seemed to bring the mantle decorations to life. I hope we get another house tour for Christmas. And I would love to see Nicholas Fairford visiting your home and you visiting his.
We're doing gifts different this year in my family but I really do like these ideas I'll probably make them for my own decor. My roommate would love the chess board idea definitely
I would love to receive every single one of these DIY gifts! Well done, Drew!
You are an artist! You always say in your videos you aren't, but there are many forms of art, and you sir are an artist!!❤
I could see those hand painted tapers as cool. Can't think of how I'd use the corks though they were adorable.
These are terrific Drew! I love especially the bookmark one, which as I do embroidery I can do some fancy stuff! I laughed when you found the "lazy daisy" stitch. It *is* a neat one. There are tons more so those who stitch could make some fabulous book marks. Outstanding is also the checkerboard hand it up board - I want to know. Is the pattern showing a check mate? (I don't play chess so wouldn't know) Enjoy your holiday prep!
Oh I doubt it though I'm not a player. He called the "knight" a "horse" which made me chuckle. But all great diy ideas!
Thank you. I was totally stuck on what to do! I just painted some white candles with copper paint as instructed. Beautiful! 🙏🕯️
Wow love this 🎄🎅🏼🌲‼️‼️
Great gift ideas! I especially love the painted taper candles.
Drew, I so love watching your projects. The embroidered book mark is fabulous 😊
These are lovely projects, Drew! Thanks for sharing your inspirations. ❤
Love! I'm going to make two of them... The bookmark for my eldest LOTR book reader and the checker board one for my other son... Brilliant ❤
Spectacular ideas and so very doable. Love how you so innocently referred to the knights as “horses”. Clearly not a chess player. ❤❤
Yay first comment and first like. Love this channel. Best to you and your family. Thanks for making this video. Happy holidays!!!!!
I have so many corks! I love that idea! 😁💜 Thinking back on this, I would need more of the taper on one end. Thanks for all your great ideas throughout the years Drew! 😁💜🎄✨
I am a big reader and those would be cute in my books. I’ll make some for my sisters who also love reading. That chess board hanger was amazing.
All your projects were so cute!! I’m going to try the bookmark & candle ones!! Thanks Drew!! You’re the best!!🥰
Everybody’s getting candles! I loved your video so much.
This is the first comment I have ever posted for a video and I have to say this is probably one of the best Christmas diy gift videos out there. I stumbled across this video and I am so happy I did. The way you walk us through the projects is so easy to follow along with and I especially appreciate the tips you give along the way - like how to make the petals on the bookmark. After watching your video I am excited to make bookmarks for my friends for Christmas. Now, I’m off to binge the rest of your Christmas DIY videos 😊. THANK YOU for your great video and unique gift ideas.
Thank you so much for sharing my felt bookmark! I’m so glad you loved it!
My daughter in law is a huge fan of yours and she called me so excited!
It’s definitely a great and easy DIY gift!!! 🎁 😊
These are all really beautiful! I love how the candles look but I can’t help but wonder if it is still safe to burn them considering you used acrylic paint, which is based in resin. I’m concerned about the fumes burning it could cause, maybe they are just a good looking candle, not for actual burning? Love your content though!
Great ideas, Drew. Love the checkerboard hanger, and the candles are beautiful. Happy holidays!❤
These really are great gifts! Drew, do more of these! ❤
Love! Thank you for not talking negatively about other creators. It shows you have class!!
1 minute in and just have to say, that jacket with that hoodie!!! I am obsessed!!!
Your DIY's are always amazing! You never let us down.
I missed this video so badly last year !!! I love watching you create !!!! I want to see 100 more, please ! 😅😅
Love all the ideas. I wish more people would make their own gifts..they mean so much.😊
OMG someone please make the embroidered bookmarks. I'll totally buy them! Such a great gift idea
These are great! All of them, but I loved how simple and unique the wine corks are! Thank you!!
Hi Drew, love your ideas and how you present them on your videos. Just a thought, how does the paint on the candles affect (if at all) the burning and is it safe? Thanks x
Great question! I am interested to know more, too. Some professional artist grade acrylic paints contain heavy metals, so I wonder if those are becoming airborne when the candle reaches that section 😬
Love the bookmark!! My first initial is also A, if you’re ever inspired to do a giveaway of sorts! But seriously, you are definitely an artist; don’t sell yourself short!
Love love luv these ideas👌💯🥰 Happy Holidays Drew & Crew🎄⛄🦌🎅🎁🤶❄️
Super great classy looking DIY’s…so many times the DIY’s are too tacky looking, and I wouldn’t give them as gifts, but these look great! Thank you
Love them all! Such unique projects & gifts... the personalized bookmark is my favorite.
Dear Drew, is there anything you CAN'T do? You are the most multi-talented person I've ever seen. Happy Christmas!
Your ideas are delightful. Especially the bookmark. Gotta try this. Thanks for sharing.
This is one in which I want to do ALL the projects! So cute! I was thinking of my loved ones -"Oh! That bookmark would be so cute for 'H'!" "Those cork, drawer-pull handles would be perfect for 'J'!" "Those candles! Oh, I want them for my own table!" "'T' would adore that chessboard hanger!" You are a marvel, Drew! You've solved all my Christmas gift dilemmas in one video!
I'm definitely making a bookmark for my daughter. Thanks for the quick tutorial.
Never miss a Lone Fox video. As soon as that notification comes off l grab a coffee and settle down. Happy holidays everyone 🎄🎄🎄
Love the simple candle idea!
They are great awesome gift ideas. My favorites are the tapered candles. Have a wonderful weekend. 😀👍👍👍
You can do anything, you are so amazing - so creative and I love how you share so much with us. You really are something, thank you!
Drew always has the most tasteful diy ideas ❤ they look so luxurious! The candle idea costs nothing but makes such a difference!
I love, love, love your creations. I will definitely paint candles just as you did as lovely homemade gifts. Thank you!
I like to gift books. I am absolutely going to make felt corner bookmarks for them in the future.
Clever and easy but beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
I love all of the projects but the bookmark and painted tapers are my most favorite! Can't wait to try them!
Love them all but my favorite is the chess board it looks so professional.
hopefully the paint you use on the candle's isn't toxic when it burns!
Wonderful and clever ideas. People would love these. ❤
You inspired me to make a bunch of the felt monogrammed bookmarks - and they came out so cute! Total cost was $1.99 for a sheet of felt. Thank you!
THAT BOOKMARK!!!!❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for all your work these years!
I loved that the knights are horses!!!! So beautiful... I'm making this. Thank you!!!
Love these fun options! Thanks Drew!!! 🎄♥️
Very nice ideas. Wow 13 years... I remember you styling clothes with Chris, in Paris, NY, helping her setting up part of her house, and your trip with her to the thrift store,I believe that's the way I found you or I found you first then her, can't remember. Happy holidays!
“I’m not an artist by any means”
But creates tons of beautiful and artsy decor pieces.❤❤
Like the wine topper idea, and the book corner keeper. Very good ideas. I also enjoyed your fast White House tour recent upload.
Happy Holidays everyone!! ❤❤
The bookmark is super charming, but love love love the candles.
Amazing ideas for Christmas gifts !!! Love the checkerboard and the candles !!! And off course I watch your channel, it is the best !!!
Love the bookmark. So stinking cute!!
I AM IN LOVE WITH THESE DIY CHRISTMAS GIFTS!!!
❤❤❤. Thank you for sharing your DIY’s Drew! Love it!
These are your best DIY gifts ever!
Very great ideas for DIY gifts and they’re beautiful!
Absolutely love you content and ideas always!!!
Merry Christmas!!!! 🎄 🎅🏻🎄
I would love to receive any of these as gifts..TFS ❤️🙏🏾
I have one suggestion for the book mark. If you cut THREE pieces of the felt... embroider one; then get fusible facing and stick two triangles together- then you don't see the embroidery and the front will have a little stiffness to it. Then use the third one for the back.
Wouldn't miss a Lone Fox video..❤
Great ideas!! I like the wine corks and the felt book marks. I have people in mind for these!! The stitch around the bookmark is called a blanket stitch. Might be easier for your viewers to look up a tutorial using that term. Plus backstitching and other terms with embroidery. Just google embroidery stitches. Many tutorials there, too. You are amazing that you can just pick up a needle and thread and go to town. Awesome job!!!
Yay for more of your DIY’s! Love them!!
Definitely will be attempting the book mark it’s so adorable for my daughter as it’s her last year in Uni
That checkboard one is really cool!
All the ideas are great! The taper candles are over the top!
