Help
In years past, I've always made a calendar for all of the grandparents, my great aunt, etc. But my sister-in-law wanted to make it this year, which leaves me at a sort of stand-still for gifts. I'd like to make something homemade, something that family will love, something that will be special. Digital, hybrid, whatever. What are you making this year? I need some inspiration!

Anna, how about little photo books or the exploding box?
Shannon and Carla also made scrapped pocket calendar covers in the last craft chat. (They also could be checkbook covers).
Or, maybe christmas ornaments? Stationary pads?

Some of the new Printable Art and Crafts or Printable Monograms could be used to make nice gifts: pillows, wall hangings, coasters, mugs, etc.

Anna, recipe cards made into a little mini album would be great too! If there were some cookies to go with it...maybe something with chocolate in it?

- Caramels are only a fad. Chocolate is a permanent thing.

I LOVE all your ideas! Thank you! Somehow I missed the Exploding Boxes. Those are so cute and would be fun to fill with smaller gifts. And I have been loving all of the monogramed items - I think my mother-in-law would love some custom note cards. And since my husband LOVES to cook, we have a big, messy binder where he sticks all his recipes. I've been meaning to do something with it, but I bet he'd love it if I made coordinating dividers and organized it into a recipe book. I'm excited to get to work! Thanks for the suggestions!

I did Calendars this year, so I'm not much help for you there! I'm also doing some printable art for different holidays to swap out with a frame I'm giving them.
