That time of year again: What handmade gifts do you make?

[faerywings]

Everyone in my family has put their foot down this year. No one wants "stuff."
I usually make a lot of gifts and gift baskets every year, so I feel like I have done everything -- within my capabilities LOL- already.

In the past, I made a bunch of aromatherapy/bath and body care products. Scarves and hats. Food gifts, spices and seasonings. Photos and scrap pages of course. Gnomes, hand-painted vases and floral arrangements.
What else? I am drawing a blank at the moment.

So yeah, I need to come up with a bunch of gifts for my family and the idea section of my brain has run dry.

Can we brainstorm together? What kinds of gifts do you make? Bonus points if you have a photo

Are they opposed to gift cards or restaurant cards?

If I'm handmaking gifts that particular year, I crochet them. Hats, mittens, scarves, etc.
