Christmas gifts need not be expensive. What makes holiday gifts special is the thought you put into coming up with that gift. But in our case, coming up with the idea isn’t enough. Rather, we’d prefer our own hands crafting the gifts we’d like to give the special people in our lives. I hope these DIY gifts will also be special to you and your loved ones.
