I cross-stitch, bake goodies, make signs, put together gift baskets, typeset and print calendars and many other small crafts and projects.

I do both, but I try to mostly keep it homemade. I knit, bake goodies, make gift baskets, and a variety of other things. I love to 'upcycle' as well.

I said make and buy because depending on the person and whatnot I can get away with recent photos dressed up on a photo frame. I try to buy things that can be useful to the person for the most part.

I do both. My husband want a pair of short made my me for Christmas last year in a certain print, so I made it happen. The kids wanted an Angry Birds playset, so I sewed them some. But there are bought gifts, too. It's a mix in our house.

I buy my gifts but I'm always thinking about making them instead. I sometimes make my own cards too.

I'm not that crafty. I usually just buy things... but only if they are on sale or online with a coupon code.

I do a little bit of both. I make coasters and scarfs, dishclothes and goods. and I buy when we are out of time for me to make stuff.

I buy stuff for people I don't know well, and make stuff for people I know closely.

I do both. Sometimes, I'll do both for one person; other times, I'll buy for one person, and make for another. I usually always make the cards, though.

Rarely. If so, then mixed with something bought as well.

I do both. And if I chose to buy I at least make the card and decorate the wrappings. It's alot of fun to make stuff and cheaper too.

I used to buy most of my gifts, but as the amount of people I've had to get presents for has been more and more narrowed down to those who are closest to me, and I've had less and less money to spend, I've been making a lot more of my gifts.
