What’s the Project? Whether it’s the holidays or another special occasion, handmade gifts are always wonderful to give and to receive. Here are 25 easy ideas for anyone on your list.
Your friend holds a pretty, shiny gift, all wrapped in red paper with a glittery silver bow. From across the room, you watch. It’s finally the moment that she’s going to open it-something that you’ve been working on and anticipating giving for weeks.
When she opens it and loves it your heart feels warm and happy. Any gift is fun to give, but isn’t it even more fun to give a handmade gift? Something you’ve put your own heart into? Something you hope she will love for a long time?
Giving handmade gifts at the holidays (or anytime) is fabulous, but can be so time-consuming, especially at a busy time of year! But it doesn’t have to be hard to give something you’ve made. Here are 25 easy handmade gift ideas-things that should take about 30 minutes or less to make so that you have time to actually get them done!
When you look through these gifts and try to decide what to make, think through a few things-is this a Christmas gift? Do you want it to be festive? Maybe something warm and cozy like a blanket or a candle. Who are you giving it to? Someone who loves to drink hot chocolate? Maybe a mug rug, a coaster or even a painted mug. Really think about what your homemade gift recipient will enjoy and then pick what you’re going to make!

This is great! I’m going to use some of these for my kid’s English class. We’ll modify the key holders into hanko (seal) holders. I’m in Japan so the kids can give their mother’s a present they will 100% use.
