Anyone have any cheap gift ideas?

belle204

I was going to make my three aunts scarves but I just haven't felt like it or had time. I just want to give them a little something from A and have a few ideas but am open to suggestions. I've Googled the hell out of "homemade gifts", "cheap gifts", etc. and  am tired of looking. Tia.

Scuse me. Bubs and Lu-Lu knit. My ass can only use one hand at a time so I have to crochet. Lol. I really better though. I can do it.

Loved your gifts in the post below. So freakin cute.

I usually gave my aunts those super-soft fuzzy socks and a purse-sized lotion or a small framed picture of B and E. They seem like they like it? I really don't care to be more creative, though, so maybe they liked it the first time and now joke behind my back about whether they're getting yet another pair of sweater-socks or one more framed picture of my kids;)

That makes me laugh and if you knew me ( IRL) you would laugh too. Me + kitchen= disaster. ;-)

It is the thought that counts! ?;)

I'm a kitchen spazz and have made two decent things so far this season: haystacks and Rolo/pretzel melts. Let me know if you want either recipe. Easy peasy!?

What about some handmade stationary? Like six all-occasion cards with envelopes??

Thanks everyone. The more I think about it the lazier I get. I think they will get candles again and I'll let A toss some candies in a jar and we'll tie on a cute ribbon and call it a day. Got to love procrastination.

Mh's birthday was a couple of days ago. I bought a $3 picture frame at walmart. It had 2 4x6 slots that were matted. I printed off a picture of Lucas to put in one side. On the other I traced lucas's hand and let him color all over it. Not so sure *all* members of the family would really love it, but I'm sure grandparents, great grandparents, really close aunts and uncles would. Idk.
