Hey Valerie,

I don't have a corresponding post or pics yet but I am making a handmade pictionary & charades game for my sister in law this year. I'm using an empty pickle jar, spray painting the lid, and writing the prompts on tongue depressors {popsicle sticks would work too}. I'll add some pretty ribbon & call it a day.

I saw a great post the other day about a serving platter with thumbprint snowmen from the whole family {Grandparents would love this} I'll see if I can find the link again.

I'm going to bake cheese cakes for my family and friends, which is a little better than cookies and very inexpensive and easier to make(1 can of condensed milk, 1 can of evaporated milk, 1 package of cream cheese, two eggs, vanilla and of course graham cracker pie crust.Blend, bake and voila! Makes two pies!) I'm also sewing fleece ugly dolls for my nieces and nephews this year, you can get pattern ideas from their website (uglydools.com) and you can even sew them by hand! Customized them with the kid's name on the back!

Coupon books! We were tring to encourage our Grandma to spend more time with us so we set a monthly date with her (1st Saturday for example) and gave her coupons. For Example:

"July is jammin'! Come to our house and help us make jam."

The coupons were for her to join us for our regular activities. It turned out to be a very fun gift!

Felt needle books. My daughter made me one, and I love it. Very inexpensive -- just felt, a few buttons, thread, and needles.

I learned of this craft at Pink and Green Mama (a blog you should follow if you don't).

As a grandma I would say anything my grandbabies make is much appreciated. They live far from me and I love to brag on anything they send (always displayed where anyone visiting can see). This year I'm hoping for fridge magnets (sent their moms instructions as a hint) of their sweet faces but a plain old rock painted with flower would be great. But a tin of cookies, decorate by them would be super! I would have to have the girls over immediately for coffee and cookies.
