Handmade gifts
I've made a hand made gift every year for everyone in my family (well mainly the women). 1st year was a Christmas wreath where I bought a plain wreath and decorated it with different left over christmas decor (poinsetta, ribbon, glass balls etc) and hot glued it on. To this day everyone still hangs up that wreath for the holidays. Another year I made glass wind chimes with some fishing line and beads/stones. Finally another good one is hand decorated ornaments. I bought a big thing of plain white material ornament balls, separated them into 4's and wrote 'messages' on each one with glitter glue, joy/love/family/hope. I placed matching ribbon threw the top for hanging (matching to the glitter glue) and placed 4 in a box for each family. That was a good idea.
