I have a few people to buy for this year and once again thinking how to do this frugally and sustainability (I get a bit sick when I see mountains of plastic crap in the shops). Any ideas?

Some things I have done in the past:

  • Little plant cuttings in jars (got some on the go again this year)
  • Op shops and second hand gifts - look for unusual things from the op shop. This works well for some but not unless they are a bit quirky themselves
  • Buying a bunch of treats/snacks and doing my own hampers up.
  • Baked goods - I always make a big batch of spice cookies and a couple of slices. I am crappy at packing them nicely tho, but I can cook.

I am not great at crafts but I will try anything!

    Good point. I have a friend that always buys me candles (which I like) but they live in a much bigger place then I do so they always pick really strong scents that blow my head off in a little apartment!
