Place photos of the youngest family members at the top, a little lower - their parents, even lower grandparents, great-grandparents, great-great-grandparents... That's how simple and easy it is to create a family tree, to please grandpa. Such a gift is well presented on birthdays, new year, Christmas ...

Many boys love to carve pictures on wood, such talented work would be a good gift for grandfather. You can burn a picture, where the main character is a favorite grandfather, and then it can be painted and presented. You can also burn something related to grandfather's hobbies (fishing, playing chess, hunting, skiing...).
Granddaughter needleworker will easily please her grandfather with a warm knitted scarf, socks, embroidered shawl. If there are sewing skills, you can sew a pillowcase on the pillow with the initials of the grandfather, or slippers from felt.
Virtually every old man uses glasses, and not everyone can boast with a handmade cover. Here's another idea for a gift from a granddaughter. The case can be sewn from felt, fine leather, decorate it to your liking. Handmade gifts will be a theme for any holiday.
The hand-painted cup is a useful and enjoyable gift. It can be presented on any occasion, the main thing is to depict the desired theme. To create it you will need:
- a white cup (or another color, the main thing is monochrome);
- acrylic paints, brushes of different sizes (it is better to take the paints that bake, they hold longer);
- Printed picture from the Internet or self-drawn on paper, cut out a stencil.
First you need to wash the cup, wipe dry with a paper towel. Degrease with alcohol with a cotton swab to make it easier to apply the pattern. Draw the outline of the image on a cup with a pencil (if you do not use a stencil), the lines to pass a thin brush. Draw the picture, tracing the details. Then roast the cup in the oven: put it in a cold oven, turn the temperature to 120 degrees for 20 minutes, then increase the temperature to 180 degrees, bake for another 20 minutes. Turn off the oven, leave the cup in it until it cools completely.
In this technique, the cup can be not only painted, but also painted with warm words and wishes.
Such a gift every grandfather will be happy!
Another way to make an exclusive cup is to decorate it with polymer clay. From this material you can create the necessary composition and attach it to the cup. Of course for this work requires more skill, but the result is worth it.

He will gladly accept the created handicraft on any topic, any nature: drawing, applique, molding from plasticine or clay, knitted accessories and edible presents.
