Thinking of Christmas presents

Well this year there really will be homemade gifts. I always have the best intentions, but to date haven't really found anything that feels right. This year I am growing a tomato plant for each of the great-nana's since none of them need anything, and what better than fresh produce. Maybe I'll have a go at making soaps for others and then just need to come up with a few ideas for the blokes. Any ideas?

How about hot pepper plants? All guys think they can handle the heat. This would give them the chance to prove it.

If you want to make soap for Christmas gifts you can't afford to wait too long. Soap takes 4 weeks to cure once it's been made, and if you're a beginner you might get some unsatisafctory batches before you make any that you'd feel proud to give as gifts.

But it's not hard and it's lots of fun so I'd say go for it.
