Some out-of-the-box thinking and a trip to your local Builders Warehouse and you might be amazed with the ideas that you can come up with. There are so many crafty ways to use ropes and chains - and they don't have to look like something made in the school workshop.
Anyone handy with a sewing machine knows how easy it is to run up a tote bag. What will make your gifted tote bag special is the design that you add. Use 100% cotton, linen or denim to craft the bag and gift to family or friends that are concerned about the environment.

Picture frames, especially something unique, are always appreciated. There are various materials that you can use to craft picture frames, my favourites being SupaWood and polystyrene or pine moulding and trim. Finishings can include Rust-Oleum spray paints in colours or metallics, acrylic paint, tin foil, Woodoc gel stain, etc.
