I mostly made my own cards, you can see them here: https://moem.dreamwidth.org/352618.html I did not make gifts. We don't do Christmas gifts here. Yesterday I made a Christmas tree! We were eating at my mother's house and she did not have a tree, but she did have some fallen branches; I used some bamboo sticks and tiewraps to make them into something that looked a lot like a small pine tree. Then I decorated it with baubles and garlands, and for lights I had some rainbow LEDs which looked very pretty and were also very lightweight. Since it wasn't an actual tree it could not support much but the whole thing ended up looking pretty Christmassy.
And a couple of weeks ago I hosted a workshop at our hackerspace where we made CDs and old harddisk platters into Christmas decorations, also using rainbow LEDs. They looked like this:
Huh, now that I think about it, it's been a good year for Christmas crafts. :-)
