For our extended family Christmas this year, we have agreed not to buy gifts. We will each bring a handmade gift from materials found at home or pass on an item we love, no white elephant items! When we get together, each item will be numbered. We will pull a number and take the gift bearing that number. No purchases allowed. My husband and I have both spent considerable time making gifts. I am looking forward to the exchange. There will be no wasted money and thought goes into our choices.

Fantastic. Look forward to reading more about it.
Great idea!
Very good and diferent idea!
Brilliant idea, and great for families on a budget. Sadly I could not see mine doing it. I confess to recycling unwanted gifts at a later time (making sure the original sender didn’t get it back!) and throwing out a challenge one year for the naffest gift for a quid.
I’ll do a post and let your know
What a lovely idea. it makes the gift extra-special.
This is lovely. Merry Christmas!
Thx u too
Ditto! Merry Christmas!
Great idea!
We are limiting our family gift exchange to food. None of us needs or wants a doggone thing and a nice gift of something homemade or a bit decadent is so much better. Love your idea!!
A truly awesome idea. You will have to write a follow-up post letting us know what ingenious creations are brought. Sounds to me like a great time to try s gallery post.
I will follow up. What is gallery post
Very, very good idea, a lot of fun, and unique gifts with personality! Wonderful!
