Good Christmas Gifts For Your Family?
Q. I really want to get my mom, dad, and older sister something nice for Christmas, but have no money to buy them anything nice. Any ideas on something homemade or something that I could get them that they'd like? I'm a teenager, if that helps.

A. Make some cards that are like coupons for favors. It's like giving a gift certificate for something that can't be wrapped. Just make sure to include the wording "non-transferable" so that they can't sell them, or a favor such as a back rub for dad could turn into something kinda creepy. ;D

If you can afford yogurt covered raisins, then you can repackage them and include a card that says it's snowman poop. It's a gag gift usually for the stocking. Usually there is a rhyme like "You've been bad, so here's the scoop; all you get is snowman poop."

I can't possible tell you what they might like since I don't know them, but just about anything you make from with your own hands (even with power tools since your hands guide them) will be Made in the USA from locally sourced materials, so it's patriotic and green at the same time.
I don't know what resources you have around you, but I do know that there is very little time left for carving stuff out of wood. One thing you can make quickly is some ornaments to hang on the tree. You can make a clay from some flour and a lot of salt and a little water and you can shape it, press stuff into it, and color it with food coloring, so you basically let your imagination go wild. You harden the clay in the oven and put a string on it. Be sure to make the hole for the string while it's still soft or you will need to drill it.
You can also make clay from corn starch and baking soda. Just watch this short video for instructions:

You can make play food, picture frames, jewelry, plaques, decorations, etc.
You can make two dimensional tree decorations by rolling it flat and cutting out shapes with cookie cutters. It will possibly be more impressive to make tiny 3D objects that fit within one cubic inch.
Mold it with the string or wire already sticking out the top.

Another thing you could make is potpourri. If you have the time you could even boil pine needles to refine essential oil from them.
There are a lot of great ideas on this website I just found:
