I have made quilts (no surprise), embroidered on lots of things, wooden blocks painted and made into a candle holder, crocheted hats, stationery I designed and printed, crocheted rags, and cross stitched bows and stockings (but people do not like those). I think someone else commented they give cash to older children. We get cash from one of our parents and it is the most helpful - something we get something we want, but mostly it goes to a need. I give my grown children who have lots of needs gift cards. I don't receive hand made things though - wish I did!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02863887265545701157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809809639444040308.post-73213263225521087302017-11-24T22:35:31.364-08:002017-11-24T22:35:31.364-08:00I so remember Holley Hobby.

Neither was married, so there was not married last name. I did my married last name and gave that to my son forty years later, framed for his new home and family. My sister remarked that you could always tell what I was into by the Christmas presents. One year my sister and I made Holly Hobby things for our other sister's child and my child who were the same age. I made two dresses and my sister made two dolls. I have made many gifts each Christmas through the years.<br /><br />When I am sick, I do like you do--one thing and rest. Sometimes I spend three minutes on a chore or ten and rest for an hour.

We didn't do stockings and I always felt it was missing, so I started with child nuber one. These are little, practical-socls, combs, etc. but always candy and an orange-like in one of my son's storybooks. I pick up presents all year-ones the girls in particualr wil like, but also things like graphic tee's and basketball style shorts my son likes, even as he is now a full fledge adult. As pricey things the older kids might need woudl be beyodn my knwledge, I give a bit of cash th tthey can apply to whatever they need-new lap top, an appliance of some sort, or to use towards a vacation or something else of importance. Still, the stckings are appreciated. I love what youa re doing for the parents-special memories as they get older.

I have continued the sock idea with my family though I do tuck in money and/or gift card too.<br />I wish I could make presents but I have no one who would appreciate that sort of thing.....2 sons and a daughter who isn't "girly". sigh.<br /><br />I have been sneezing and my nose has been a bear too.
