My group has, for the last several years, stocked and run a Christmas
gift store for the young children in our church to buy their presents.
We've always got many ideas for gifts for women, but we never seem
to find enough gifts for dads or granddads or brothers. We use
very inexpensive stuff to make these things, because we don't sell
anything in the store for over $3.00. This is for little kids,
and they don't have much $$ - more like >>>. In the past, we've
had "tee bags" - cheesecloth sewn into bags for golf tees, the
ever-popular golf tee game (the one with holes in a small board
and tees in the holes, and the object is to clear the board by
jumping one tee over another, etc.), and key chains (a *LOT* of
different types of key chains). We need some new ideas. Anybody
got something simple and inexpensive to make that would be a good
gift for men? |

-I don't have any ideas at the moment, but I just wanted to say how I
thought that this is a wonderful idea, having a store for children to get
presents. When I was very young, one of the department stores in NYC had
a similar idea (of course, everything was from the store, not homemade),
but parents were not allowed inside, and there were clerks inside to make
sure that the kids actually bought something appropriate (ie not a tie for
their mom, and so on). I remember buying a pair of burgandy gloves for my
mom, with fingers in different rainbow colours (she loved them and wore them
every -How about a basket of gardening things (use those plastic pots that you
buy plants in): packets of seeds, work gloves, small trowel, hose attachment (I've found
many of these things at the store where everything costs $1). |
