Small Christmas Gift Ideas

[JoeyGee]

What is everyone making as Christmas gifts this year? It seems every year my goal it to make some small trinkets to give out at the holidays for teachers, small gift exchanges, etc, but I always run out of time. I need to start now.

I will stockpile a few of those wine holders (a piece of wood, cut at an angle, with a hole in it). I can knock a few of those out. I would also like to make a few small wood type puzzles, and conversation pieces.

I'll hopefully get a few of these done:

Any other ideas for quick and easy projects for small gifts?

Love the cube within a cube! Definitely making one or more of those if I get the chance to sneak into the workshop before Christmas, lol.

I have a mess of scraps milled up as good as I can get it, and laminated together in blocks. I am planning on a few band saw boxes, a Hanukkah Menorah for a messianic family, a few Advent Candle holders, and most importanly, if I can get the quality just right, I am planning on an oak shadow box for LOML's bouquet and other wedding accessories.
