21 DIY Holiday Gift Ideas That Won't Break the Bank

This post is all about holiday gift ideas.



I can’t believe the first semester is already over! With the stress of finals finally finished, I’m sure the last thing you want to do is start stressing over the Holidays.

Figuring out what gifts to give all your friends is hard enough, and figuring out what to give to your family members is even harder.

This post shows you 21 DIY holiday gift ideas that won’t break the bank! 

 
Holiday Gift Ideas: 

1. Homemade Caramel in Mason Jars with Apples

This is the perfect gift to give in bulk. Buy a couple bags of red and green apples, melt or make a bunch of caramel, jar it, and wrap it all up in a plastic bag with cute ribbon!

Add labels along with the ribbon, and you have quite a few gifts to give out at a party or to coworkers!


2. Get Well Soon Gift Basket

With cold and flu season in full swing, this is the perfect gift for someone you know who’s a little under the weather.

All you need for this gift is a mug, honey, lemon or lemon juice, chapstick, tissues, and coughrops.

Bonus: Add a box of tea to go along with the mug!

Extra Bonus: Notice how this mug is aesthetically pleasing? Try to keep a color scheme going to achieve the same thing!


3. Caramel Latte Tea Cup Candle

Know a coffee lover? This is the perfect gift to give to them!

This is such a cute way to give someone both a candle and a mug. If you can’t get ahold of all the ingredients needed to make the candle, you can always melt an already made coffee candle and reset it in a mug. 

 
4. Lottery Tree

Family member or friend that’s a senior in high school? This lottery tree is such a fun gift to give to them, and a very creative way to give them some money.

The foam tree and bows can be found at the dollar store, and just buy your favorite lottery tickets wherever you usually buy them! 

 
5. Wisk you a Merry KISSmass

Know someone who just moved into an apartment or house? Giving kitchen tools is always a very appreciated gift!

Since this gift only requires chocolate kisses and a whisk, try and make sure the whisk is high quality!

Make sure to add the cute “We Whisk you a Merry KISSmass” tag so the gift is as adorable as it is in this picture! 

 
6. Manicure Gift Basket

As soon as I saw this picture, I immediately thought of my mom. I don’t know if it’s just my mom, but she loves painting her nails. I mean really loves painting her nails.

This gift basket is such a great idea because of how budget versatile it is. You could recreate this whole basket with stuff from the dollar store, or make the basket very high quality with some of the examples shown above. 

  
7. Bailey’s and Hot Chocolate

Bailey’s and hot chocolate is a delicious combination, and is especially perfect for the Holidays!

Add hot chocolate mix and marshmallows in a jar, and use twine to tie a mini bottle of Baileys to the lid of the jar.

I love gifts that use mason jars! When you give a gift such as the one above, you’re giving the initial gift of the hot chocolate and baileys, plus the mason jar! 

 
8. Spa and Pampering in a Jar 

Similar to the manicure gift basket above, this is a spa and pampering day in a jar!

To recreate this gift, I would recommend purchasing a large jar opposed to a regular sized mason jar. Then, just fill the jar with nail polish, nail files and clippers, face masks, lotion, and whatever else you would expect at a spa! 

 
9. Pinecone Fire Starter

Have someone in your life that has a fireplace in their house? This pinecone firestarter is a wonderful thing to give them. I’ve personally been given them, and they’re absolutely wonderful to start fires with!

Purchase or find a large pinecone, and dip the entire pinecone in wax. To make this extra cute, add a tag like the one shown above. Make sure the tag and string are environmentally friendly to burn as well! 

 
10. Ice Cream Sundae in a Box

This is the perfect gift to give a family with young children!

Find paper bowls, spoons, ice cream cones, toppings, caramel and hot fudge, and assemble as shown in the picture above. The more decorative and cuter, the better! Make sure to add a tag that says “just add ice cream”. Tying this tag around the ice cream scoop is perfect! 

 
11. Mason Jar and Candy

This is another great gift to give in bulk. I personally would give these to my friends that I live with in the dorms at college!

Add some chocolates to a mason jar, tie with some ribbon, and add a label that keeps the color scheme going! Notice all the gold in this one? 

 
12. Succulents in a Mason Jar

Have a plant lover in your life? This is a wonderful gift to give them! I personally have been given a succulent as a gift, and it is the perfect plant to keep in a dorm.

When recreating this gift, do a bit of research about which substrate to use when potting the succulent – there’s a little bit of science behind it! Add the cute tag to remind your loved ones to let love grow around the Holiday season. 

 
13. Stovetop Simmer

I’ve never done one of these myself, but I always see them on instagram and they make me wish I didn’t live in a dorm. This is a wonderful gift to give a newly married couple, or someone who just bought a house or apartment.

This is a super simple gift to make. Look for a recipe online, put all the ingredients in a cute bag with some instructions, and your gift is done! 

 
14. Mistle Toes

Know someone who loves pedicures? This is such a cute little gift to give them. This gift is small enough to be a stocking stuffer, or, it can accompany a bigger gift!

To create this gift, add some confetti or fake snow to the bottom of a plastic gift bag. Next, add some nail polish and lotion, and finish the bag off with a cute tag. 

15. Mason Jar Cocktails

Similar to the Bailey’s and hot chocolate gift above, this is another very cute drink gift. These are small enough that adding three or four to a basket would make a great gift!

Pair together mini bottles of booze with their corresponding sodas. Tie the mini bottle of booze to the mason jar, and add a reusable straw! 

16. Mint Sugar Scrub

Sugar scrubs are a timeless gift. Plus, who doesn’t love the mini mason jar this one comes in? This is the perfect gift for any girl that’s in your life!

After you make a sugar scrub, simply put it in a jar and tie some cute ribbon around the top. This is one of the easiest DIY gifts you can make! 

17. Dip Mix Ornaments

This is such a cute way to gift an array of dips.

Buy some clear ornaments, clean them, and fill them each with a different dip mix. This is a great versatility gift, because you can make the dip mixes or purchase them pre-made. Finish the gift off with some ribbon and instructions on how to make each dip! 

18. Cham-pineapple

Gifting a normal bottle of champagne a little too boring? Try turning it into a pineapple!

As shown in the pictures above, cover a bottle of champagne in gold wrapped ferrero rocher chocolates. Tie the bottle up with a clear plastic gift bag and cute matching ribbon. Add some green paper as a pineapple top! 

19. Snowman Donuts

What a perfect gift to give a group of little kids! If you work with a group of little kids or have young family members around the same age, this is a great gift that you can give all of them.

Buy a large box of individually wrapped white powder donuts, draw snowmen on them with permanent marker, and finish with some red ribbon and a black hat. This is also a great gift for young kids because it is nut free! 

20. Bubble Bath Gift Box

One of your friends especially stressed from the first semester? This is the perfect stress-relieving gift to give them!

Add chocolate, bath salts in a cute jar, a face mask, cotton swabs, and a mini bottle of champagne to a cute box. This makes a perfect stress relieving gift! 

21. Treat-Filled Slippers

When I saw this gift idea, I immediately thought about my roommate. I love the idea of filling slippers with such cute things to give to someone that’s important to you.

Buy a cute pair of slippers, fill them with cute gifts like chocolate, chapstick, nail polish, and face masks. Finish it off with some festive ribbon!
