handmade christmas gift list?

Hello, I know there is a sticky topic with a list of various forum links to projects but is there a christmas one ive missed? I would love some christmas gift ideas but not able to trawl through over 200 pages of chat to find them. I was wondering if there was a list tht ive just missed as others must be in the same boat? :xmastree:Thanks

    I dont think there is a specific thread with a list, i have had to trawl through all the threads and look at each page, its taken me 2 weeks to do and now i have a whole book full of ideas.

    Maybe you could start a thread, and each poster could give you idea's, links and what not and you could edit the first page with all the details so that anyone looking would only have to look at the 1st post to get loads of ideas, then at their own pace can go through all the different links etc.

    So far in my book i have:
    snowman soup,
    reindeer food,
    nappy cake's
    pot's of gold,
    flannel muffins,
    retro sweet jars,
    handmade xmas calendar with boxes for drawers,
    survival kits,
    xmas eve hamper,
    various hampers for family.

    I cant post links as i am silly and dont save them i just write everything doem in my little book, so i can take it out with me on shopping trips.


    These threads where i started looking for inspiration:
