Who does love a homemade gift. They are much more thoughtful that a purchased one. I love the thought and love that goes into them, plus they are often less expensive too. We have some amazing links to last weeks Fabulously Frugal, so please do keep them coming. I know that these gifts would make a wonderful Mothers Day present.

All I have to say is Skittles Vodka!!!! 🙂
some lovely ideas here jen!
Home made gifts can be so much more thoughtful than shop bought sometimes too, these are lovely ideas.
I’ll be back later to link up!
I have been frugal for quite some time now (as in months not years LOL) so I really must start joining in, to cement my new habits.

I’ve been wanting to make skittles vodka for a few years now. This year is my year!
Skittles vodka sounds delicious – not so sure about chocolate and marmite though!
Some lovely ideas, I love homemade gifts, they mean so much more don’t they…plus can save some pennies.
Very intrigued by the chocolate & marmite lollies.
YES to Skittles vodka! I did a post on this myself! xxx
Fab ideas 🙂 I did a handmade sugar scrub a while ago and I love it – no intentions of giving it to anyone else 😉
When I was younger and my mum used to say to me that she loved handmade gifts more than store bought ones,I thought she was crazy. Now I get it. They’re amazing.
I have made Skittle flavoured vodka when at Uni and was surprised A) we didnt poison ourselves and B) it tasted nice x
You got me on Skittles Vodka… it sounds like fun and will be perfect for parties
Skittles vodka brings back very fond memories, made and drank gallons.
These are such cute and festive gifts! I prefer homemade gifts over store bought because it takes more time and attention. It’s more genuine.
Thanks for sharing at Inspire Me Mondays!
Thank you so much for referring to my paper brooches. I’m happy you liked them. They initial started out as gift for the little kids of my sister and they grew to a big collection a figures, mini artworks. Maybe I should make a blog post of how to make them yourself, what you think? Thanks and I loved sniffing through your posts.
The Mother says – Wow! We are loving this blog hop and thanks for linking it to our #minicreations
