There are ideas here intended for all levels of craft skills, ranging from "Wait, they make hot glue?" to "Hmmm, maybe I'll whip up a batch of crocheted stuffies while my resin charms are setting," so you can certainly find something that would make a great gift for someone on your list AND seems manageable with your skills. I mean, there is more than one idea here that requires only tape and paint. You can do this!
DIY GIFT IDEAS
There are also a bunch of DIY posts on Neon Rattail that would make great gifts (some of them were!). Here are a few that are user-friendly to make and very fun to own, which I can attest to personally, duh.
So there it is - a crazy amount of DIY gift ideas. Now you have NO excuse to not make some amazing homemade gifts this year, unless perhaps you've recently gone through a scissors-related trauma that you're trying to forget. For the rest of you, try a little hand-crafted goodness this year, okay?
Do you like making your own gifts? Or do you roll your eyes when someone gives you a gift they didn't buy at a store? Or maybe you just push gift planning so close to the last minute that you have no time for any of this?
Oh wow! I have try the vodka and candle ones. I'm probably going to make presents for my co-workers but not my whole family. I personally like to receive food presents so that's another good route.
ReplyDeleteAgree! Edible gifts are always a good idea because they're delicious and you don't have to keep them forever. I definitely want to try the vodka one, too! xo
DeleteGreat list! I think I need to make some animal bookends now. Personally I love DIY gifts, but I've found that some people aren't always receptive... well, except for food gifts. People almost always love homemade baked goods and such.
ReplyDeleteI KNOW! Those bookends are glorious. And, yes, homemade baked goods are always a hit! I'll be doing my traditional almond biscotti this year :) xo
DeleteThis is an awesome DIY craft list. Thank you for sharing! I really want to start making things again... it's been ages!
ReplyDeleteNo problem! There's no better time to start making things than the holiday season! xo
