Every year you have a question - what to give your husband for the New Year? And every time it’s more difficult to choose a gift. A great idea would be to give him a handmade gift. It will not take a lot of time and money to create it. The main thing is your desire and imagination.
If you want to give a gift made by yourself, you should stick to a couple of points.
- You must know exactly the interests and desires of your man. If you are a great needlewoman and like to knit, then you should not knit scarves, gloves and hats if he does not wear them. Or give, some thing for the car, if he does not drive it.
- You must put your love in a gift.
Gift Options
Mustache Mug
This option is suitable for men who like to drink tea, coffee or other drinks.
Of course, you can buy a ready-made mug, but it will not have that “zest” as you would like. Therefore, it is better to do it yourself. And it will take quite a bit of time.
What is needed:
- plain ceramic mug;
- special marker for painting;
- stencil (if you draw well, you can and by hand);
- scissors;
- Scotch;
- oven.
Manufacturing process:
To start, wash and dry the mug. We prepare a stencil. Then, using adhesive tape, glue the stencil to the mug so that it does not move. Next, take a marker and carefully fill the space with it. The marker can be absolutely any color. At this time, preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Once the desired temperature is reached, put the mug there for half an hour - an hour, depending on the time recommended for drying the marker.
When it is dry, we take out the mug, and it is ready for use.
It is not necessary to make a drawing in the form of a mustache, you can make any other one you want.
And you can also decorate the mug differently.
Other options for painting dishes
All the necessary materials are available for every girl.
What is required:
- color nail polish (several colors are possible);
- capacity (in which you will paint);
- plain ceramic cup;
- warm water;
- thin wand or toothpick.
Manufacturing process:
Pour warm water into the container and add a couple of drops of varnish to it. If you want several colors, then do it in turn. Then we make various patterns with a stick or a toothpick. Then we take a cup and lower it into water. We take out and leave to dry.
Remember! Everything needs to be done very quickly, because varnish has the property of folding. And before you make the gift itself, it’s better to practice.
Box with sweets
This option is suitable for those who like to eat something sweet. There you can put all your spouse's favorite sweets.
Preparing a presentation will take you a minimum of time.
What is required:
- box;
- tape;
- sweets.
Everything is easy here: we take the selected box and put all the sweets there, close it and tie it nicely with a ribbon.
Also there you can put not only sweets, but also any small items. It will be useful to write a love letter written on a beautiful card.
Certificate
A very good gift is a certificate. You can pick it up according to your man’s hobbies. This can be a parachute jump, a wind tunnel, go-karting, a visit to the resort and much more, most importantly, know his preferences.
Picture
If your old computer keyboard is “lying around”, you can make an unusual volumetric picture of the keys.
What is needed for the picture:
- keyboard keys;
- frame.
Process:
First, take an unnecessary keyboard and remove the keys from it. We come up with the idea that you will lay out of them. Then glue to the cardboard part. And insert into the frame. At will, you can add scenery.
Organizer for the office in the form of a shirt
A man who is constantly at work and takes it to his house, or who likes to sit at crosswords and will always need pencils and pens, will be happy with such a gift.
With the help of such a presentation, he organizes his work and will not waste time searching for an office.
You can also come up with many different ways to decorate your organizer.
Material Required:
- small jar;
- light fabric in the form of a small triangle;
- dark fabric;
- black marker;
- thread and needle;
- glue.
Manufacture:
We take a jar and in the middle we glue the fabric in the form of a triangle. Then with a marker we draw a tie or bow-tie. Next, we take the dark fabric and from it we cut out a rectangle of such a length that it is enough to wrap the jar. Also cut a triangle in front, the same size as a triangle of white fabric. Then we take the threads and the needle, bend the edges in the form of a collar and hem them. Glue the resulting jacket onto a jar.
Knitted clothes
Such a gift will remind you and warm your soul and body on cold days. With the help of threads and knitting needles, you can knit the necessary item of clothing for your beloved. And depending on your skill level it will depend on what kind of thing it will be.
What is required:
- threads
- hook or knitting needles.
Before you start creating things, it is worth practicing in order to determine the tension of the threads and the density of the knit. Decide what you will do. Choose the necessary scheme for the future thing and carefully consider it. Start knitting - if it comes out unevenly or there are large gaps between the loops, then it is worth dissolving and starting again. Then, as everything is ready, the surprise can be wrapped in gift paper or put in a box.
Snowball
Such a gift is very unusual and interesting. You can buy it in the store, but it will not work out so unique if you just buy it. But if you do it yourself - this is another matter. You will not spend a lot of money and time on it.
Necessary materials:
- transparent jar;
- artificial snow;
- a small toy (or your photo);
- glue.
Manufacturing process:
To begin with, thoroughly wash and dry the jar. Then we take the lid, and glue a toy or a photo to its bottom. Then we spray snow on the bottom of the can and on the lid and close it.
Picture frame
Such a gift in the moments of separation will always remind you of your beloved man. He will also complement the interior of your apartment.
What is needed to create:
- frame;
- glue;
- various scenery;
- photo (suitable for frame size);
- acrylic lacquer.
Process of creation:
We prepare all the necessary materials. We take the frame and glue the prepared scenery on its sides. After gluing them, then we pass on top with acrylic varnish to keep everything better. And leave to dry. In the event that you use sparkles, then the frame should be varnished before applying, so as not to crumble. Now, as the frame has dried, we insert the photo there. And pack the gift in holiday paper.
Christmas tree balls

For decoration, add a little snow and other decorations. You should be careful with the snow so that the photograph is visible. Next, close the ball with a lid, put a ribbon in the eyelet and tie it. Repeat this process with the remaining balls. Pack them in a festive box.

What should not be given to your beloved?
Do not decorate his favorite things. Not everyone will like it. If you want to present him with a T-shirt with your signature painting, then buy a new thing for this. A sweet gift should not be given to someone who simply does not like sweets or follows a figure.
