If you are like me, on a tight budget, there is no need to look any further for budget friendly Holiday Ideas! Being in college, with no financial aid, has molded me into a money-saving machine. I have scoured the internet in search of holiday gift ideas you can make at home for very little or even free!
Holiday Baked Goods: Many people, around the holidays, get too busy to bother making their own Holiday treats-so why not make some for them! Anything goes here-Cookies, Candy, Bread, cakes, etc…Plus you can customize, not just the treat, but the container itself! Jars or Boxes are a great idea for containers and you can decorate to your liking. If you need inspiration might I recommend this website?
Speaking of Baked Goods….
Holiday Cookie in a jar: Don’t have time to make someone a holiday treat? Why not give them something that makes it easier for them to make their own? Does you recipient enjoy chocolate chip? How about delicious chewy brownies? The possibilities are endless!
Artistic Rendering: Creating a personal piece of art for someone is a fantastic way to be personable while not spend a lot of money. Also, since it was created by you, it is more personal and well received by the person, even if you are not artistically talented.
Bath Soaps, salts, and Candles: This website gives various recipes for creating bath salts, soaps, and candles. They are very inexpensive to make and are a great gift for anyone. They give an example of a “Candy Cane Bath Salt” but you could always replace the peppermint oil with your choice of fragrance for a custom creation.
