I am always on the outlook for fun homemade gift ideas that will not break the budget. You can find many of the items you need to make these at thrift store or a dollar store. Look for cheap items like:
- Tray and serving platters – Paint the center with chalkboard paint. Or etch initials into the center.
- Clay Pots – Paint, decorate and plant at beautiful Paperwhite
- Tea Cups and saucers – to make candles
- Old Sweaters
- Wine Glasses or other glasses to paint or etch
Here are several that look easy and that would be loved by the receivers!
