Christmas is a time of giving, but sometimes it can feel all a little bit overly expensive and impersonal. If you want to put some more meaning into the gifts that you give this Christmas, then making your own is a great way of doing this.
Not only does this make it more personal but you can also have great fun doing it. Here are some great homemade Christmas gift ideas…
Special Memories – Now is the time to reflect back on the year and if you have any special memories and have photographs of them, you can create a photo gift for someone that they can display. As well as traditional pictures in a frame, you can also create a calendar or a keyring with special photographs on.
Christmas Knitwear – This is the season to be warm and cosy, so if you are able to knit, a cosy blanket or scarf is a great gift! Alternatively, give someone else the gift of knitting and get them something like these knitting kits for beginners https://www.stitchandstory.com/collections/knitting-kits to get them started.
Festive Candles – Candles are a tradition at Christmas time, when we want to bring some light into the darkest days of the year, and you can make your own candles to give as a gift. There are lots of tutorials online that show you how you can make them.
Food and Drink – If you are a whizz in the kitchen, festive food and drink is always going to go down well. From homemade sloe gin to gingerbread biscuits.
