You want a long one so that you can pick from it (or not at all) and they will still be surprised. Ask them to include things they like from $1 - $100. Your price range might be different. ALso if it is something they saw in a particular shop tell them to list the name of the store as well. Tell them to put a star next to their favorite 3 things. Now you don't have to pick from the list but you get a real good idea what they are into and chances are you will buy them exactly what their heart desires. I did that with my 3 teenage girls years ago and I still do it with my husbands.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010443633955755126.post-28395928731993155122012-12-08T09:43:17.534-05:002012-12-08T09:43:17.534-05:00I have 3 teen grandsons & always have trouble ...I have 3 teen grandsons & always have trouble coming up with ideas for handmade gifts. My daughters & granddaughters are easy. Ideas for this year haven't come to me yet & I'm struggling. I'd welcome ANY boy gift ideas! (One year I did a cold connection key chain; another I did a sort of crude, masculine cross on a leather cord.)PAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02848626942006325605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010443633955755126.post-66195236390876853632012-12-08T09:39:52.026-05:002012-12-08T09:39:52.026-05:00I have 3 teen grandsons & struggle every year ...I have 3 teen grandsons & struggle every year trying to come up with something handmade for them.

I do that, not only because it saves money, but also, because it is more meaningful. My daughter is my youngest (22) and I still need to remind her that these gifts will be gifts that will be cherished long after the play station is outdated. I just got some simple ideas in my head for guys necklaces using my copper tubes!<br />MaryAnnArtisan Beads Plushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17162473523455499816noreply@blogger.com
