So, DK and I are doing "Christmas for $10!" this year. :D I might have one over on her, since I've had a lot of Christmases were I was BROKE and got creative to avoid spending money. >.>
But it has made me think about all the creative gifts I've given and gotten over the years. Here are some. *grins*
Bryant made music CDs one year, of Canadian music. Those were fun. I still listen to mine... :D
Marste knitted me an awesome scarf, with a fun shawl, too. :D
We've made pajamas and T-shirts for each other (we all did PJs, Marste did T-shirts). There were bead-bracelets another year. :D
I made a book of coupons for my parents, with stuff like 'do the dishes' and 'make dinner' for my mom, and 'go get coffee' and 'have a head rub' for my dad. Which sounds weirdly unbalanced, but those are the things they'd appreciate. *laughs*
My mom used to sew shirts for my Grandpa and Uncle Mark, and occasionally things for us, too.
Last year, Chelsea got a friend of hers who's really good at photography to take pictures of my dogs, and she framed them and it's awesome. :D
Marste used to copy movies for me, back when we could copy them off VCRs. *laughs* I have so many happily copied movies. :D
I made Superhero CDs one year, with all the superhero songs I could find. *grins*
Marste got her artist friend to give me art lessons one Christmas, which was awesome.
Hmmm... nothing else comes to mind off the top. This year, I have presents for DK. Several, actually. >.> Two of them are just kinda fun, and I'm not even sure if she'll like one of them, but the other one has become A Project, and it's AWESOME. I'll tell you all about it after Christmas. ;-D
Now I just have to think of presents for the rest of my family. >.>
What about you guys? Any creative presents over the years? ;-D
