Hi,
I need suggestions for gift items.
I'm a novice woodworker. Last year I started to make gifts for my nieces & nephews, parents and siblings for Christmas and their birthdays.
These gifts include pens & pencils, baseball bat pens, perfume bottles and atomizers, vases, bowls, envelope opener, wine bottle stoppers, pie knife, tambour clock, jewelry box and desk items. The desk items include pen, paper clip, note and business card holders.
Right now for Christmas I'm running out of ideas. Not so much for the girls since I can swap around what I gave them last year. The boys however are an issue, their ages are from 7 to 24. I've tried yo-yo's and spinning tops for the younger ones but my turning skills aren't too good for that yet.
So I'm looking for suggestions, keep in mind I'm a novice plus I need something that won't be too time consuming. I have 10 nieces and nephews.
Thanks,
Phil
