Nelly When it comes to gifting someone special, its no secret that it often takes a lot of thought, time and money to pick something relatable and oh so perfect. We tend to look for expressions of our loved ones when we hand over the gift, and when you know you have picked something so perfect, you’ll both be filled with such warmth and love. This is why I have made this Budget Friendly Homemade Gift Guide.
With this guide, you will have everything you need to create that perfect gift, and best of all, you can add or remove anything you like or dislike to make it exactly the way you want 🙂
A beautifully wrapped gift for you
The perfect gift of satisfaction
Why I have put this Budget Friendly Homemade Gift Guide together?

This Budget Friendly Homemade Gift Guide, just as the name suggests, is budget friendly! With times being tough, this is the perfect gift for a whole family with just one box. Arranged so perfectly, this is definitely a go-to gift 🙂
The best thing about this gift idea is you can skip the festive fiasco and rush to buy gifts. This homemade gift can be made well ahead of time, a few weeks or even months and stored in their packaging ready to give away.

So here’s my 5 chosen recipes that have gone into the Homemade Gift Guide!
1. Sweet and Savoury Spiced Nuts And Pretzels
Part of this Budget Friendly Homemade Gift Guide is some Sweet and Savoury Spiced Nuts And Pretzels. They are so easy and straight forward to make, all you have to do is mix your roasted nuts together with the spices and pop them in the oven.

They can actually be flavoured in so many different ways, from caramelized nuts to honey-roasted nuts, tasting somewhere in between salty, sweet and spicy. Also, orange candied nuts giving it a new amazing taste, or rosemary roasted nuts, absolutely delicious!
