Homemade Christmas Gifts Capture the Spirit of the Season Make your own Christmas gifts this season to give a special holiday memory and keepsake to family and friends. Homemade Christmas gifts capture the spirit of the season through the personal attention and care that goes into every gift. Benefits of Homemade Christmas Gifts Homemade Christmas gifts let you add your personal touch to each gift, often without the expense or time associated with buying gifts from shopping malls. In fact, you can usually find what you need to make your own homemade Christmas gifts at either a craft or grocery store. If you have a long gift list, homemade Christmas gifts can save you a lot of money. Once you choose the type or theme of the homemade gift, you can buy the materials and ingredients in bulk and use them for each gift. Homemade Christmas Gift Ideas From baking cookies or holiday bread to making candles or picture frames, homemade Christmas gifts come in every variety and type. To choose the best type of homemade Christmas gift, think about the people on your gift list. Ask yourself the following questions: Are there photos you want to give your family and friends? Do they have children, pets or like different hobbies? Do you make a secret recipe they love? What memory or holiday keepsake would be most special for your family and friends? When asking yourself these questions, consider what items you can make using easy-to-find materials or ingredients. Homemade Christmas Ornaments Sometimes the best homemade Christmas gift ideas are mementos, such as homemade Christmas ornaments, that your loved ones can bring out each holiday season. Making Christmas ornaments from dough is one easy way to create very unique gifts. You can make the dough using a few basic ingredients in your kitchen: Ingredients 1 cup flour 1/2 cup salt 1/2 cup warm water. Directions Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl. Knead the mixture on a floured surface until it is smooth. Roll out the dough using a rolling pin. Use cookie cutters to cut out ornaments, or form ornaments with your hands. Once you've formed the shape or type of ornaments you want, remember to add a hole or push a piece of wire into the ornaments before you bake them. Once the ornament is complete, you can tie a ribbon through this hole to hang it. Bake the ornaments at 250° F for two hours. Remove the ornaments from the oven and allow them to completely cool. When they've cooled, add some paint. You can purchase poster paint or watercolors at a crafts store. Have glue handy for adding decorations or photos. When you make dough ornaments for your homemade Christmas gifts, you can customize each ornament for every person on your gift list. While you can make traditional holiday ornaments (such as stars, candy canes and Santa hats), you can also create very personal ornaments (such as ornaments in the shape of favorite pets, horoscope symbols or sports objects like soccer balls or baseball bats). You can even glue photos to the baked ornaments. This season, experience the special fun of making easy homemade Christmas gifts and extend a holiday keepsake to family and friends.
