Girls are very sentimental. They love to do things with their own hands. Gifts to friends are very simple. You can make as some kind of decorative thing, and something utilitarian. The main thing is to focus on the taste preferences of your friend so as not to miscalculate with the colors or design of your product. Gift ideas can be found below.
Casket
One of the ideas for a DIY gift to friends is a beautiful box. Girls love caskets, because in them you can store such beautiful, but absolutely unnecessary things. Many women collect everything that they are sorry to throw away: beautiful buttons, clasps, broken earrings and bracelets. All this wealth can be given a second life. But there is nowhere to store such beauty. So create a box for all this.
As a basis, you can use a box of shoes. Paste it with wrapping paper or cover it with a beautiful cloth. If you want to give a more serious present, you can buy a wooden box blank in the store. This form can be decoupage or painted with acrylic.
flower composition
Does your friend have a holiday? What kind of a gift can a friend make with her own hands? Create a composition of fresh flowers. Today it’s unfashionable to give bouquets. But original designs that have a frame are a trend. How can you make something beautiful? From thick wire you need to roll the base. The easiest way to make a circle or oval. Now we strengthen this form in a box with a floral sponge and begin to insert flowers one by one. First we fix the short ones, and then the long ones. All plants should touch the sponge with their legs. So your craft can last not a week, but a month, which, you see, is not so little for flowers.
If you want to make a gift to your girlfriend on February 14 with your own hands, then you can resort to this method. Freeze the flower. How to do it? Take a beautiful rose and place it in a vase of water. Water should completely cover the plant. Now you should put the vase in the freezer for the night. In the morning, remove the workpiece and let the product melt a little. Then your rose will easily separate from the vase. It remains to pack a beautiful gift and present to a friend.

The idea of a DIY gift to a girlfriend is very simple. You can make a curtain of threads or build such a product from paper clips, bells or rings. Choose a suitable material and collect long strips from it. Then decorative elements will need to be attached to the common bar. You must not only think over the material of the product, but also make sure that your creation fits into the style of the room. And also pay attention to the color scheme of your curtain. It is advisable to make a decorative thing so long that it is not too short. It’s better if the curtain does not reach the floor a bit.

One of the most popular ways to decorate photo frames is to decorate it with shells. In general, show your imagination, the whole decor that you will find at home can go into action.
Collage
Do-it-yourself photo as a gift to a friend is a great idea. You can print many photos and collect a collage from them. For example, you can make the story of your friendship or the life story of a birthday girl. But before you print the photo, you will need to make a form. You can cut it out of fiberboard or cardboard. Tint the base, and now roughly distribute the photos. Now you know how many pictures you need to print and what size they should be.
You can create a collage in another way. Take the bar that will be the base, tie the threads to it and attach the photos with clothespins. Your friend will be able to update this exposure from time to time on her own.
Decoration
How can I make a gift to my friend with my own hands? If you are engaged in the manufacture of jewelry at your leisure, such a question should not even have arisen for you. Of course, make your own fashion accessories. What could it be? Everything will depend on the taste of your girlfriend. If she wears earrings, give her these very jewelry, and if your friend prefers rings, then make an author's product for her. But there is one caveat. For example, a girl may not wear bracelets, not because she does not want to do this, but simply because she does not have jewelry of such a plan.
What can accessories be made of? Anything can go into business: wire, beads, threads, fabric, leather, felt and even dried plants.
Home cosmetics
Girls are very fond of various cosmetics. It’s so nice to soak up the foam in the bathtub, wash yourself with a fragrant lotion or make your skin smooth with a scrub. But it is not necessary to use purchased cosmetics. You can make any cosmetic product for your girlfriend yourself. For example, boil soap. You can buy everything you need to create it both in handicraft shops and in small shops that sell materials for creating home cosmetics. You need to melt the soap base and then pour it into molds. You can add rose petals, ground coffee, or orange zest to the soap. And also pour in flavorings and colorings.
How to make a scrub? Take 100 g of sugar and dilute them to the consistency of thick sour cream with shower gel. Ground coffee must be added to this mixture.
Sachet
Does your girlfriend love all kinds of flavors? Then you can make fragrant sachets for her. What it is? These are small bags in which a variety of odorous grass is poured. You can sew small bags yourself, or you can buy them at the store. Grass should be purchased at the pharmacy. Or you can go to the forest, collect plants, then chop them finely and dry them. But few people know where the components necessary for sachets grow. Therefore, it will be easier for many to buy everything at the pharmacy. Before making such a gift, you should check with your friend what aromas she prefers. Pour lavender, jasmine, mint or thyme into a bag, depending on the preferences of the girl. Now you need to sew up the hole in the bag through which you poured grass. You can embroider or glue a small inscription or congratulation on the fabric.
