I don't have a lot of money, but I do have a sewing machine and a bunch of discontinued carpet samples, so I'm trying my best.

I'm really scared that my secret Santa isn't going to like it, I love participating in this every year but money is just so tight.

Edit!!! Thank you for all the positive feedback, realy helped make me feel a bit better about all this, I'll post pictures when they are all done!

So cool! Trim the loose threads and you’re good to go. So thoughtful and original—your recipient will be very happy with these!

I’m sure most people if they do get something home made that is of something they enjoy, they will like it

Home made is even better most of the time! :)

There should be Home Made Secret Santa. I'd join in. Something thoughtful and hopefully silly.

You'd think so. But I did a painting of someone's beloved pet cosplaying as their favourite online character... never heard a word.

Like most here said, it's the proverbial thought that counts. I don't do xmas but if I received something hand made, yeah I'd cherish it

If it’s the thought counts, then the lack of thought means what? They’re an asshole? This is why people hate perfunctory holidays.

That's just cute as fuck. Now I want Christmas tree safe lightsaber ornaments.

Is that a lightsaber or a vibrator?

Great, now EVERYONE wants a handmade lightsaber Christmas tree orneryment, too! See what you did, @OP?

Accidentally started a business sewing lightsaber Christmas tree orneryments making money less tight for next year?

6 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 1

Why I didn't signup. Things were already tight, then my wife's company cut every $2/hr, making it worse.

Good on you for using your skills to make heartfelt stuff for others. I'm sure they will be happy to get them.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

This is something you are doing because you want them to be happy. Your time and effort is a better gift than anything store bought.

I had zero time and plenty of money so I did the latter and spoiled my SS. Next year I hope to actually make something with my workshop...

Same here. I sell at holiday craft markets so I don't have enough time to make them something but I do have a little extra cash.

Didn't plan for my new career to sap me of all creative and physical energy :/
