Last Minute Christmas Gifts

Christmas is approaching fast and is only a week away. You've forgotten to get someone something and you don't have a lot of money. You're stuck for ideas and don't know what to do. Well here I am, ready to help you. These ideas range in price but I tried to keep it less than $10.

My first idea is...
A sugar scrub, I attempted to make a sugar scrub last year but it didn't turn out well so why don't you try making one for someone special. They are easy to make and don't require much depending on the recipe you use. Just search diy sugar scrub and I'm sure you'll find one. Why don't you make a Christmas themed one and crush up some candy canes to mix through it. Be careful using cocoa powder because it may make your skin go brown like the cocoa but maybe try experimenting and see if you can make one that gives a slight tan that looks natural. For presentation put it in a nice jar and put some patterned paper around the jar and a cute label that says what it is. You could also make a cute tag that has a cute or cheesy message on it like "'tis sweet just like you". (that's not a good one but I'm not good with that sort of thing).

Idea #2
Make a cute scrapbook. This is more of a thing for your friends but I think it would be neat but only have you have a lot of photos of you together.

Idea #3
Hot Chocolate Kit, get a cute mug and your/their favourite hot chocolate. You could also fill the mug with mini marshmallows (This is probably more of a christmas gift idea for my viewers in the northern hemisphere because it's Summer here in the southern hemisphere)

Idea #4
Decorate a frame and put a picture of you and the person it is for in it. You could get a plain white frame and paint it with nail polishes and maybe glue on some gems or glitter and stuff like that.

Idea #5
Decorate a clear or plain white photo case by using nail polishes. Make sure the case is the right one for the phone they have. Make sure to use a clear top coat to seal the polish

Idea #6
Make a cute little book/notebook and on each page write something you love about that person.

Idea #7
Make a cute little basket of homemade treats like slices and shortbread etc.

Idea #8
Make some little coupons which would be a good idea for parents with things like foot massages and chores etc.

Anyway, Thanks,
