		<description>I did that for Christmas last year and it was a HIT! I put nail clippers and pumice stones and hand crocheted washcloths for the men. They loved it! I also handmade all of the body care stuff-soap, lotion bars, lip balm-the whole shebang! It was fun for me and everyone enjoyed it!</description>

		<description>Thanks for all the great ideas.  Here is mine... this year we decided no purchased gifts.  Things must be homemade or a chit for a service at the will of the owner.  I am making our grown sons a recipe book from home.  I will give them each a hard copy and one on a CD.  Know they will appreciate this as both cook.</description>

		<description>My husband coaches high school football.  This past Christmas I took pictures of him at each game and also I made sure to take a picture of the score board.  At the end of the season I put them all into a scrap book and game it to him for Christmas.  He loved it.  Another helpful item to go with this... At Walmart, I used the one hour photo and was able to put each picture in its own border and type what I wanted to say on each picture...all for the low cost of just the one hour developing.</description>

		<description>I made a homemade hot chocolate mix for my dad one year and now every year if I don&#039;t bring it, he asks about it and when he is going to get some more.  I put in a large mason jar.  One of the simplest gifts I&#039;ve ever given but one of the most remembered, for some reason.  


I LOVE the idea of the trail mix and the homemade aftershave--  I&#039;m already planning to try those this year (I plan Christmas 9 months in advance!)  Thanks for the great suggestions!</description>
