I have a few people to buy for this year and once again thinking how to do this frugally and sustainability (I get a bit sick when I see mountains of plastic crap in the shops). Any ideas?
Some things I have done in the past:
- Little plant cuttings in jars (got some on the go again this year)
- Op shops and second hand gifts - look for unusual things from the op shop. This works well for some but not unless they are a bit quirky themselves
- Buying a bunch of treats/snacks and doing my own hampers up.
- Baked goods - I always make a big batch of spice cookies and a couple of slices. I am crappy at packing them nicely tho, but I can cook.
I am not great at crafts but I will try anything!
I made these things for our wedding, decorative jars/vase with the copper wire battery powered lights in them with a little remote, and a few glass beads to hide the power back. ended up being fairly cheap and got a lot of compliments. We still use them for like ambient lighting and stuff.
