hpinault- re: Christmas gifts
Tell me what DIY gifts you're doing this year!
I need ideas! We are moving a few weeks after Christmas so I'm trying to spend as little on Christmas as possible this year.
Re: hpinault- re: Christmas gifts
*butting in*
How fast do you knit and how many gifts do you need to make? Scarves with nice yarn could work.
If you want to do edibles, baklava isn't that hard to make but seems more unique than cookies. My family couldn't get enough of it at Thanksgiving so I'll probably make another pan for Christmas.
Also, the FAQ on the Crafts board has a ton of homemade gift ideas.
*butting out*
I welcome the butting in! :-)
That thread on crafts is great.
I could probably knit at least a few gifts, but I know my SIL is knitting gifts for everyone this year so I'll probably stay away from that.
Ah, gotcha. Well hopefully some of the other crafty ideas on that list in the FAQ will be helpful.
well, i haven't decided 100%. I'm making vanilla extract and probably a cranberry liquor. then these are the other things i'm debating between:
woven star ornaments
cinnamon dough ornaments
10 gifts in jars
some cute diy ideas
glass pendants
30 great christmas candies
hand made candles
hot chocolate truffle balls
with homemade marshmallows
saltine toffee
graham cracker crack
