Thanks Michelle for the fun comment! I know! So hard to choose!
Love love love all of the gift ideas. Thank you so much for sharing, I can’t wait to make these for my friends and family (and some for me!)
You are welcome! Hope you found some that will work out great for you and your friends and family!
I can’t wait to try my hand at making some of these!
Me too! My list is getting way too big! ha!
Thank you so much for the great list! I think I have just knocked out 75% of my extended family Christmas gifts. This is awesome.
I am so glad to hear that! Thanks for sharing!
My family makes homemade gifts for each other every year. We started this tradition a few years ago and we always love seeing what everyone comes up with. Last year I came across your website and made sugar scrubs for everyone! They loved them so much they have asked for more throughout the year! Thanks for gift ideas people truly love to receive.
What a sweet comment! I am so glad you were able to make some and that they were well received! Thank you so much for the comment! xo
This is a gorgeous roundup. So many great ideas. I LOVE your new blog design, by the way!! So pretty!! XOXO
Thank you so much Diana! I am so happy to finally have the new design up and running!!
Thank you so much for including the roasted almonds in your roundup! Gorgeous and delicious collection!
You are welcome! They were a great addition!
Just pinned! These are great ideas! Thank you.
Amy, this is such an AWESOME list of gift-giving ideas! I thoroughly enjoy the variety and the thought of each gift idea. I am sure this list will be very handy this holiday season! Thank you!!
Hey just stopping by and wanted to thank you for sharing my link for the Crocheted boot cuffs. : )
Where can i get some of the recipes?
These are one of the BEST DIY gift ideas I’ve seen. The presentation is amazing too!! Thank-you!!
Great list – not only did this take care of my Christmas list – I can’t wait to make some of these gifts. I like that they are made with natural ingredients and inexpensive. Thank you so much!!!
How do you get the directions to all the ideas?
Click on the numbered names of the items and it will take you to the tutorials!
This has just taken up all my morning off! Now that I’ve spent so long reading, I’m dying to get to work on a few of these! Thanks for putting so many great ideas in one spot! :)
I have never been a big crafter, but am soooo inspired to jump in and try some of these. Do you have suggestions for where I might find an affordable place to get some cute labels similar to those pictured on the products?
Thank you SO much! These ideas are wonderful! Definitely a bookmark FOREVER!
There wasn’t a link for Lil Luna for the gift tags. Can you steer me in the right direction? I’ve gone to her site and cannot locate the gift tags. Thank you.
This list is AMAZING! So many different ideas from so many different areas. How can you NOT find something for everyone on your Christmas lists?! Loved this list; thanks for putting it together :)
These ideas are wonderful!! Thank you for posting! I love making homemade presents. They are much more personal. Great post!
AWESOME !!!
Wow! What an amazing list of DIY gift ideas. Sometimes the DIY gift ideas aren’t so great, but I would totally love receiving one of these. I’m going to try the lemon scrub. Pinned!
I agree! This list has several I would love to receive as well! Thanks for the sweet comment and the pin! xo
hi you have gr8 ideas however i just cant find d perfect D.I.Y gift for a few of my friends as 1. they r not d pampering type
2.some want to go on a diet and d food stuff might upset them
3.they wouldn’t really use some of this stuff can any1 think of a good diy for my friends for xmas pls??
Amazing ideas! Thank you for them you got me out of a present rutt!!
Some really cute ideas! As a fan of photo gifts, I’d really like to try and make a photo holder myself, but some of the other ideas caught my attention as well ;) Lots of inspiration anyway!
Amazing ideas !!!!
Nice presents. Especially such as the “Photo Pendant” and also all gifts ideas are lovely. thanks.
You can always go out to see a family movie together. The bottom line
is mainly to dig a target niche that can best convert leads into actual sales.
Giving presents is easy; choosing the right one
is not. You could make some cupcakes with an edible photo of your child
on, or make cookies or cake pops.
Thank for sharing, This has given me a lot of ideas :)
Hi . I made the scarf tonight. Haven’t touched a craft in at least 13 years. Took me a couple of undos but finally got the hang of it. I can’t find the instructions for the tab, my favourite part! Can you help me with this ?
Love that scarf. I see what you are talking about and could not find the link to the instructions for the tab either. You may have to email them to see if they can help. Sorry.
Oh, so lovely ideas! I can’t decide which one to start with. :) And I wish I wasn’t that left-handed with the sewing machine. (BTW last year I made a variation of the Brownie in a Jar & it was a big hit :)
These all look wonderful! :) I’d love to try a few!
Love The Post thanks for sharing this.
Diy Christmas Gifts
Thanks.
Thanks for the great list Amy! My daughter and I are planning to try out the lime mint foot soak – first making it together and then using it together!
Thanks for such a great list of gifts ideas. You may add Candeberg LED candles as they are safe and a perfect Christmas gift idea too
Manju, thanks for the suggestion. Great idea!
Amazing suggestions, Amy! I’m also a big fan of DIY gifts. I think that offering this type of gifts lets the other person know that you care enough. Yes, it’s easy to go to a mall and buy something, but it’s less personal. I would suggest adding dreamcatchers to your list. They are really beautiful, easy to make and also have spiritual meaning.
Phyllis- Thanks!
Great ideas I like the boots and books. Awesome thanks
That is a good one.
Good Share. Very Nice DIY ideas. Looking for more in future…
Mihir- Thank You!
