It's Christmas and deciding what to give that special person in
your life is often difficult.
Instead of going into debt each time you purchase a present, why
not give a gift from the heart?
Simple gift giving ideas are easy to make and with a little bit
of know how look like a professionally created gift. By using
your imagination and creating a gift tailored specially for each
recipient on your list, watch the look of surprise on their face
when they receive their present.
Here are some ideas to get you started:
Are you a crafty person? Get a plastic storage box and make up a
kit with everything needed to make a project. Be sure to include
a promise to help and teach the recipient!
If your grandchildren live too far away for you to see them very
often why not record some books on tape for them to listen to
before naptime. Include some stories about their friends.
For the grandparents, make a video of the grandchildren. Include
small snippets of them having fun, reading, school plays, sports
day. This is a wonderful gift!
How about a coffee cup filled with goodies. This can be either
chocolate or jelly beans. Looks great!
Give a handmade gift certificate. These can easily be made on
the computer or surf the net until you find a site that has gift
certificates that you can download.
If you are stuck for dad, nephews, sons and male friends, why
not get a bucket and fill it with cleaning products for their
car. Include car shampoo, car wax, a chamois, ice scraper, along
with tire cleaner etc.
For girls - get a plastic box and fill it with different types
of beads, fishing line, wire. Your local craft shop will be able
to help you out with the best items to include in this simple
and easy to make gift basket.
