Creative Birthday Gifts that You can Make
The level of creativity that goes into a birthday gift depends on two people - the person giving the gift and the person receiving it. The relationship between the two is what will decide the level of creativity and effort that will go into thinking of something special to make for the person. So, depending on the seriousness of the relationship, you can decide what you want to make for the person. Given below are some ideas that you can choose, for some of the most important people in your life.

Finding the right birthday gift for women can be quite the task. But not if you know the woman in question very well. In that case, it becomes a piece of cake to decide what to give as a gift to your mom, sister, your girlfriend or wife.

Another idea you can use to show how much the woman in your life means to you, is have a brimming gift basket. Put in all the things that you know she loves.

Idea 2
Another idea you can try out is a paper mÃ¢chÃ© figurine. Draw out a caricature of the person in question, and then make a paper mÃ¢chÃ© figure using it as reference.
