How To Enter the Homemade Holidays: Holiday Gifts

Once again the holidays are rapidly approaching. Of course, we all know what this means... PRESENTS!

Sure, we all love receiving gifts. There is something that makes you all warm and squishy inside unwrapping a parcel given to you by a loved one. The only thing better than opening a gift is giving one. This is especially true if you personally hand-crafted this gift for your friend, family member, or loved one. It's extra-awesome when someone's thrilled to receive the gift you made for them.

Now, I know you are not exactly a bunch who need to be told that you need to make presents for the holidays. I'm pretty certain most of you reading this are already one step ahead of me on this. So, show us that perfect gift you made and how you made it!
