If you ask people if they prefer a store bought or handmade gift,
the majority would choose the latter. Handmade gifts are
individualized and come from the heart.
When you have a birthday, anniversary, baby shower, wedding, or
Christmas gift to give, make the gift. For Christmas, you could
make a beautiful ornament or door wreath, for a baby shower you
could purchase an inexpensive bib pattern and make special bibs,
or for a wedding, you could create a wonderful album of photos
showing the couples dating life.
Other great options include making homemade hot chocolate,
soaps, candles, or lotions and placing them in inexpensive glass
containers or baskets purchased at a thrift shop. If you use a
mason jar, add foam and fabric under the lid for added color, use
a label to write the contents and a message of endearment, and
wrap a nice piece of ribbon around the ridge. The options are
endless, so get creative.
