This post is sponsored by West Elm. All opinions are 1 million percent my own and I’m happy to be working with companies I believe in.

With Thanksgiving just a few weeks away, my brain is on overdrive as I create holiday gift ideas, recipes and printables.  Does time seem to go in warp speed for you once that weekend comes around?   I’m hoping this year I can get everything checked off my list early so that I can spend more time with my family.

Gift Idea for the Holidays - includes bread and honey butter recipe and cute printable from www.thirtyhandmadedays.comI jumped online trying to find some ideas at West Elm Market and I got sucked into the vortex of amazingness.  They have so many great products but a few things stood out to me.  I ended up with some loaf pans, Weck jars and an awesome “Shut your lid and can it” tote to put this gift idea together.  It’d be the perfect gift for a neighbor or friend.

By now you know I’m a little pun obsessed, right?  Well I ordered a butter dish and unfortunately it was back ordered.  Sad sad face.  It’ll get to me eventually.  For now I came up with plan B to use the term “Spread joy” – get it? Butter…. spread…… ?
You can download a sheet of “Spread the Joy” printable tags.  For personal use only.  Thank you!

There are tons of recipes out there for quick bread and honey butter.  These are the ones that I tried that my family gave two thumbs up for.  I’m adding them to our holiday family recipes.

After I put the bread in the oven, I whipped up some honey butter and filled up my Weck jar.  Have you heard of Weck jars yet? They are a German based company that dominate in Europe.  I kinda feel a trend in using these jars more than our beloved Ball jars.  I love the look and feel of them.

My family especially loved the honey butter.  There’s nothing quite like warm bread smeared with sweet butter.  Mmmmmmm……..

Seriously how cute is that tote? The perfect gift on it’s own for the hard-to-shop-for Mom/sister/teacher/friend.  I think it just pulls the whole gift together.

    Love this idea! We want to try gifting these as mini loaves – any idea what kind of adjustments would I need to make to the recipe/baking times to bake these as mini loaves? Thanks in advance!

    This is sounding like the perfect (last minute) gift for me to make for some of my neighbors. Does the bread recipe make just one loaf? And how big of a loaf pan is it?

    Hi!

    How long would you say that the bread would keep being fresh? I’m thinking of doing this for my girlfriends parents for a christmas gift.

      First of all- MAJOR props and brownie points for this comment. What a lucky girl to be so thoughtful of her parents! Secondly- if it’s wrapped up in saran wrap or cellophane it should last up to a week. But the fresher the better. ;) Nothing beats warm bread and butter. Thanks for the comment Jacob!

    That cinnamon butter looks divine! I think bread is so much better with a good, flavorful butter. Love the things you picked from West Elm!
