GET CREATIVE
People enjoy receiving hand-made gifts compared to those that are readily available.Personalized gifts also show the person how much you care.Time is priceless...when you put in that time to make the gift, it becomes priceless.Think what you are good at - maybe drawing, sketching, painting. If you are not that artistic with your hands, then why not try your mind? Maybe a poem? You don't try to be William Wordsworth or Robert Frost...just try out a few lines and see. Most often, you will notice you can write simple poetry.
Ideas: Poems,Couplets,Glass-painting,Oil painting(even a 10cm by 8 cm will do!),A love-letter,Enhance an old photograph with Photoshop, frame an old photograph using bamboo, carve an apple if nothing else!
SIZE DOES NOT MATTER
Size does not matter when it comes to hand-made gifts.Anyone will cherish a handkerchief if embroidered by hand with utmost care. When something is made with love, it shows even it has minor flaws. Even the best of gifts will not make someone happy if it is gifted for namesake!So, sit down and try something new and build a small gift by yourself.
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
What if you want to impress your spouse and want to go out of your way to prove your love?Yes, you may scratch your head, spend a few nights thinking about it, spend a few days window-shopping, spend another whole day buying and at the end of it you realize that it is not just the bank account that has shrunk, but also the gift!After all that effort, the gift may not look that very exquisite!
TRY IT - YOU MAY LIKE IT
If you have enough time then try it, you may like it as well as the person who is at the receiving end!
