Giving a gift is a way of expressing love and showing people that they are special to you. Gifts can also be used as a way of saying thank you. At times, you might be willing to give a gift. But things might be challenging, and maybe even your budget is stretched. This should not limit you from gifting your loved ones.
The reason being, there are a lot of homemade presents and flowers. They often mean a lot to someone. They reflect the time and thought that you have put into them.
So here are the different types of gifts that require little or no money to offer your loved ones.

Frames are not hard to make. You can also opt to buy a cheap frame and personalize it with someone’s name.
