Who is giving a homemade gift?

[seemunkee]

and what are you giving.

I just finished making 10 sun jars. jars that have a solar cell under the glass lid connected to a battery and LED. The jars are filled with clear and blue tinted marbles used for flower arranging.
The look something like the ones on this site

I didn't like the frosted glass and went with the marbles instead.

I give homemade sewn or functional craft gifts like potholders, table runners, and napkins. This year I'm also making spiced mixed nuts for local friends and all of the nuts are locally grown.

7. well sort of

the lawst few years i've given my ma and sister each a batch of my homemade granoloa which they like as an additional gift

this year i also used paper bags as wrapping but i put the inside surface of the bags on the outside for a plain brown surface which i had my artistically talented son decorate with xmas drawings...i think the wrapping looks really nice and gives the store bought gifts a nice touch...

i'm typing with glove one by the way so excuse the spelling
