Anyone start making gifts, preparing for the holidays?

I am making up some of the fire starters that I gave multiple members of my family two years ago. My sister made the request on behalf of my nieces and nephew as well as herself. They all live in an area that is very cold in the winter and they all use their fireplaces as the sole source of heat. I made them to burn 45 minutes, so I guess they work really well.

I am also repeating, as requested, some homemade doggie treats from a book I purchased. Last year I did a chicken based mix, and this year, I may try the peanut butter recipe.

Nothing exciting or terribly crafty, but since these are requested repeats, I'm going to do it.

I am having a super budget Christmas this year, so I need to get cracking too.

I make my mom and grandmother calendars and an ornament every year. My mom, I make a sculpted steampunk animal ornament- so I need to figure that one out and get going.

My brother and I aren't buying presents this year, but I am making him a Lego family portrait with Minifigs that look like his family. He loves Lego.

For my daughter, I am going to refinish Barbies to look like her favourite band, Walk Off The Earth. She just turned 8 and has too much stuff so I can just alter her existing Barbies.

My husband- I was thinking about sewing him a shirt but it has been years since I tailored anything of that calibre so that might not go the way I hope!

For Dh's family I am sending gift cards for the kids, and not worrying too much about that.

I need to,spend some time in my scrap area to sethe what paper inspires me for my cards this year. I do have a good start on shopping, but no plans for homemade gifts.

I hope to make reversible quilted table runners for a couple of people. If I have time I'll knit and crochet multiple winter hats for grand kids and nieces. Other than that, I haven't thought of anything else.

Was it a one time code or something you can share?

I'm thinking of doing a tote bag and zip pouch combo for women I gift. Men? No idea...and out of the question handmade for my teenage boys..lol

I took photos of my nieces and DS together while we were all visiting a few weeks ago (this is hard to do on a regular basis bc we are all spread throughout the country). It was so much work to wrangle three kids 3 and under, but I think I got a few cute ones to choose from. I just kept snapping and took like 350 pics of them all, hoping for at least one pot of gold!

I'm going to print, frame and mat the best to give to my mom and grandparents.

I haven't started yet but I have a plan. I'm going to make jars of cinnamon honey butter for my mom and my MIL. I'd like to find one or two other things like that to give them. Neither of them need "stuff" and it's getting really difficult to buy for them. MIL is borderline diabetic so while I'd love to give her and my mom tins of cookies/treats, it's not the best idea.

I'll definitely be watching this for ideas.

I crocheted ear flap hats for my 3 yr old neice and 1 yr old nephew. For my 12 yr old nephew I am taking 4 chocolate bars, wrapping a strip of pretty paper around them and wrapping a $20 bill around that. For my MIL I am crocheting a plum colored shawl. For my mom I crocheted an infinity scarf. That's about it for the homemade things and the rest of my gifts are bought for my kids, DH, Dad & FIL ... or I know what I'm getting them.
