Hello! Today I am going to share 10 DIY Christmas gifts you can make for your friends. Most of these are art or craft related.
Also, don’t forget you still have about four days left to submit artwork for the Fall Art Contest!
1. scrunchies
Check out my scrunchie tutorial here! Once you get the hang of these, it’s really easy to whip one out in twenty to thirty minutes, so it’s great if you’re short on time.
2. sketchbooks
This takes a little bit more time, but it would be a good gift for a friend who loves to draw or doodle. Check out my tutorial here!
3. paintings
You can follow any tutorial (check out this one and this one both by me) and then frame them! IKEA sells really inexpensive frames that I like to use, and they look pretty nice too!
4. keychains
Keychains don’t take long and they are super cute! Check out my cloud keychain tutorial.
5. baked goods
Baked goods are very delicious and perfect if you need to make gifts for multiple people. Check out my snickerdoodle recipe here! If you don’t want to make snickerdoodles, check out my favorites recipes below.
Danish Butter Cookies – Nerds Cookies – World Peace Cookies – Green Tea Cookies – Fudgy Brownies – Honey Caramels
6. puzzles
A hand drawn puzzle is a fun gift for a friend who likes puzzles. If you have blank puzzles on hand (for some odd reason I do), paint or draw on them, and then package it. Maybe don’t paint a creepy eye though.
7. lettering
Framed lettering pieces are great gifts. Consider doing a Christmassy Bible verse! (Again) IKEA sells affordable frames.
8. beanbags
These are super easy to sew (I might do a tutorial later for these) and very fun. They are great to have on hand because when you’re bored since you can do a variety of things with them. (I found this tutorial for you until I make mine.)
9. bracelets
Friendship bracelets are fun gifts and not too hard to make! Check out a tutorial for a zig zag pattern here.
10. products from my shop!
Hehehe of course this has to be the tenth option. Check out the stickers here, which are fun and inexpensive gifts that everybody will love! I will be releasing a Christmas Collection very soon.
