Cheap homemade christmas ideas

[Mum2OliverJames]

This year i am on a very tight budget and wanted to get things for my family that i have spent time on rather than money.

My ideas so far are:
Salt dough hand/foot prints
Christmas tree cookies personalised with names
Framed photos
A personalised calender

My DS is 10 months so he isnt really able to do much in terms or decorating things so it would be done by me

any ideas at all would be welcomed
Thank you

I made 4 large square christmas cakes which I then cut into 4 smaller ones. Iced and ribbon, into boxes (lakeland). v well-received, will do again this year.

Also did expat's flavoured vodkas which were fun to give.

hampers - get stuff from lidl and baskets from 99p shop.

I make huge batches of rocky road and white choc cranberry fudge. Get very cheap mugs/plates or things like that to put it in - wrap with cellophane and tie with ribbon.

Will find a link to the recipes for you.
