Making your own holiday gifts does not mean that you should be giving out hand-knit trivets and bedazzled crafts. Even if you aren’t a craft expert, you can make some pretty fab DIY gifts for your friends and family at the fraction of the cost of store-bought gifts. With just a little time, you can turn ordinary and low-cost objects like candles, photo frames, or sets of martini glasses into items that are truly extraordinary.
Plus, we’ve found that homemade gifts strike the recipients as high-thought rather than as low-cost. Save a bundle by making one (or all) of these sparkly and sweet gifts this season.
