DIY present for boyfriend.
So my boyfriend & I decided that we were going to make each other things for christmas instead of buying them. I'm moving right after christmas so it has to be really special. Some ideas I had were making him PJ bottoms or a scrapbook. (maybe just collages with pics of us?). problem is, his mom is a seamstress and has a lot of experience with scrapbooking. I don't want to have to live up to her expectations. Also, I don't to spend a lot of money.. 10-20$ is good. something cost more to make than buy made. any thoughts or other ideas? thanks!

I think you should make like a scrapbook, not so much fully blown up details, like a picture of you two, then a sentence or a funny qoute you remember from that day. Sorta like a memorbeilia. I hope this helps. And congrats!

Perhaps you can conspire with his mom and think of something that you can both do. However, if you really want to go solo as you suggested, you could make jewelry. You can go to any hobby shop and find materials.
Though, I do think if you want to make a scrapbook or pj pants, you shouldn't feel like you don't compare to his mother. Exchanging handmade gifts is not a competition, it something that truely comes from the heart.
Hope that helps.
