    Hand made gifts?

    I'm wondering if anyone here makes hand made gifts for their SO.
    I made Robert a Love letter satchel it turned out lovely but my phone wont let me put them on my computer

    I also make necklaces and key chains for him sometimes.

    What kind of hand made gifts have you or your SO made for one another?

    I did a cell phone sleeve as well as an iPad sleeve for him for his birthday and he was very happy with those. Especially with his iPad sleeve! He LOOOOVEEEES all things Apple.... !!! I'm thinking of crafting a necklace for us both, but I'm not sure how to go about that since money is thight these days...

      If you live in the states try going to local craft stores and look for colored hemp I have a ton of hemp left from when I used to make stuff for friends. Its not too expensive and each thing I got came with three colors

        I make him hemp necklaces because he loves to wear them. For our anniversary I made him a picture frame filled with pictures of us and a pillow case embroidered with words that describe him.

          We knit. She got into the hobby and then wanted me to learn, so viola! I learned. She made me a cuddle blanket for when I sleep and absolutely coated it in her perfume. <3 I'm in the process of making her one too, because mine makes me sleep so much better.

            For my SO's birthday, I taught myself to knit and made him a sweater

            Tadaa! It fit him perfectly, beginner's luck I'd say!!

              I've painted glass jars for him. One was for Valentine's Day, and I put Hershey's kisses in the jar. Then, I also painted one for our anniversary, where I wrote out 365 reasons I love him and put them in the jar.

                  I made "love coupons" for him once with flash cards, stickers, glitter and markers. They would say things such as "FREE HUG" "GET A KISS GET A SECOND FREE" "THE FORGIVENESS CARD" etc. They we're really cute and he appreciated them a lot.

                  no matter where i am, no matter where you are
                  i'll be there when it's over baby - cause i was there from the start
                  no matter if i'm near - dont matter if you're far
                  all you do is pick the phone up baby & i'll be there when you call

                  Whenever you need me, whenever you want me, ♥

                    This list is long.. because.. he's the type that can afford whatever he wants.. so most of what I send is very personal.

                    Aside from poetry I write for him -
                    Oil and water color paintings..
                    a dreamcatcher i made for him
                    currently working on a rosary for him.
                    etched wine glasses as he is a wine lover.

                    the other things I've bought/had engraved. The more personal with him.. the more it means.. and hand crafted is the way to go..
                    “There is in every true woman's heart, a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity, but which kindles up and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity.”
                    ~Washington Irving
