    I have always asked for "useful" stuff for gifts... One year, it was a huge Craftsman tool box, full of all the basic tools! Gift cards to Lowes are always great! (I'll have enough of them collectively to finally get that Deere Ive been craving!)

    Fabric? No thats not odd.

    that reminds me... i should make a few hammocks to give as Christmas gifts!!!

    I made a few polyester ones and gave them the other week. Heard the kids spend most of there time (when resting) hanging out in the yard.. Simple and inexpensive way to make someone happy!

    And that means they are staying out of trouble!
