At All Gifts Considered, we are very aware that everyone is operating within different budget ranges. And more often than not, the greatest, most heartfelt gifts simply cannot be bought.
If you’re the DIY type interested in homemade Christmas gifts for men, or simply want to avoid breaking the bank this holiday season, consider these gift ideas:
- Gift basket. Gift baskets can be as economical as you need them to be, and are also 100% customizable. Get your creative juices flowing by creating a special gift basket just for him, filled with things he loves. Add his favorite snacks or candy, a pair of mittens, a scarf, a book he’s been wanting to read, a bottle of something delicious. Throw in some red and green tissue paper, tie it all up with a bow, and viola! The possibilities are endless.
- Framed photo of the two of you. What could be more special than being reminded of a wonderful memory you share together? If you can’t choose just one picture, take this idea a step further and create him a scrapbook.
- DIY. Do you know how to knit or crochet? Make him something that he can really use during this cold weather. Using his favorite colors of thread or yarn, make him a beanie, a scarf, a pair of mittens, even some warm socks! He is sure to appreciate the time and effort you take to make them.
- Gift card. When all else fails, this is still a thoughtful go-to idea. With a gift card he can buy himself something he really wants.
- Homemade meal. If you enjoy cooking or baking, whip him up his favorite meal as a Christmas gift. Go all the way and make it a three-course special, or just present him with his favorite yummy dessert.
- Homemade Christmas card. Or better yet, a Christmas newsletter…relive with him all of this year’s special memories through stories and photos.
