An unshakable stereotype has formed in the minds of many that either children make gifts with their own hands, or those who do not have the finances to purchase something truly worthwhile. But this is absolutely not true. No matter how many “shop” gift options are invented, only those that are made by hand carry warmth, attention and care. After all, the giver puts his soul into them, devotes time and creates an exclusive, which is unlikely to be available to anyone else. To understand that this is not the last century, we offer you an interesting selection of presents that you can create on your own.

There are many options for birthday gifts that you can make yourself. And the choice of a specific one depends on the age of the birthday person, his preferences and tastes. A selection of various options that will be appropriate both as gifts and for the role of gifts, and for a wide age category.

To make it is as easy as shelling pears, and the costs are at the very minimum, and it takes very little time for such creativity. But in the end it turns out a very useful thing. The frame itself can be decorated as you wish, but it is best to choose a style and color scheme that will be in harmony with the room where this beauty will later hang.

Continuing the topic of frames, there is another option to use it as an interesting idea. Such a "board" can serve in a variety of ways. It can be both a photo holder and act as a stand for "reminders". No matter how the birthday person decides to use it, in any case, the gift is not only original, but also very useful in everyday life, and making it is simple and very fast.

Why are simple piggy banks inconvenient? The fact that you never know how much money is there. But this can be fixed if you give the birthday man just such a piggy bank. Firstly, such a piggy bank cheers up, being on the wall and showing its fullness with money, and secondly, the filler itself can use a marker to make calculations directly on the glass, writing down the accumulated amount. By the way, the gift itself can be presented no longer empty, but with a financial filling.

Candles are an attribute of warmth and comfort, and it is also romantic. A beautiful candle is a universal gift that will be appropriate both as a main gift, for example, a set of candles, and as a present. Making these candles is quick and easy. For decoration, you can use both purchased lace and crocheted with your own hands. Just brush the glue onto the glass and wrap it in lace. As soon as everything dries, place a candle in a glass and that's it - you're done!

Another option for candlesticks. You will need to spend more time on it than on the previous one, but it looks gorgeous. It will be necessary to impose motifs of different diameters, but at the same time it is necessary to ensure that they can harmoniously fit together. After that, you need to inflate the balloon, use PVA glue to attach the motifs to the balloon and hang the latter to let the glue dry. After complete drying, gently burst the ball, and place the candle inside.
