What do you prefer? I am liking the idea of homemade but i know a couple of friends who would say the right things but wouldnt appreciate them.

I always send the teachers something handmade usually cakes.

I would love something handmade as I think the thought behind it is more than going to a shop and Im the worst present buyer in the world :thumbsup:

I love making and receiving homemade gifts and cards. I usually give a mixture of bought gift and homemade cookies/cake/sloe gin type of gift

i love handmade gifts and wish i had more time to do them. i only send handmade gifts to those i know will appreciate them. for others i go shopping! sometimes i buy something, and then hand make something to go with it.

we make biscuits for the teachers/people who run clubs etc etc.
