968 handmade Christmas gift ideas!

Handmade gifts are my favourite. I like the idea and the time it takes to create them. Change the holiday goal to "What will I get for Christmas?" to "I'm so glad you can see what I've got for you!"

This is the best change and I have seen this in my kids every year since they were little. Make the holidays magical and sparkling by making DIY holiday gifts.

The best thing about making DIY gifts is that you have to work hard! It's time to give gifts to prepare for the holidays without feeling overwhelmed or stressed.


How are gifts made at home? Draw names and give someone a gift? Or is there something for everyone?

You may have already exchanged DIY Christmas gifts… what do you think?
