have you tried to search it on yahoo or google? I know personally I plan to make blankets… Purchase 2 pieces of fleece.. I try to buy 2 different pieces for example one piece has puppies on it the other side is just plain purple… the size of the fabric should be 1 yard and a half each……. place the two pieces on top of one another and cut slits alll the way around the edges.. this gives it a fringe effect…. then tie the finge pieces together and you have a nice blanket…

Google homemade gifts and a bunch of sites will come up with great ideas for you to choose from. You could also go to Michael’s or another craft store and buy some ceramics, boxes, etc. to paint. They will also have a lot of other crafts that you can choose from. Homemade Chocolate-Go to Michael’s, WalMart, or candy supply store and choose the molds that you want to buy and pick up the chocolate and whatever fillings you may want. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave. If you do it in the microwave put it in for about 20 seconds stir and repeat until completely melted. Make sure you stir the bottom so it doesn’t burn. Then pour into your molds and place in the Freezer. when the mold is cloudy take it out and flip them over and shake gently. If they don’t come out put them back into the freezer.
