First let me tell the story.
My dad was fired at work because they didn't need him anymore, before that we weren't 'rich' but we weren't 'poor'
I would consider us poor now, because we have a house, food, water, ect. but we don't have as much money as we did before. Okay well now my mom is the only one working and that's doing good. But I need some ideas for things I can make or my cousins, brothers, aunts and uncles, and grandparents, because homemade stuff is better and a little cheaper. So do you have any ideas on how I can help them save money, and ideas on what I can make for my family.
I have
2- 12 year old girl cousins (one preppy one skater)
1-18 year old cousin ( skater)
1- 18 year old brother (kinda punk, kinda skater)
1- 2 year old boy cousin
1-15 year old boy cousin (very preppy)
1-15 year old brother
1- 22 year old brother
1-23 year old sister in law
1-6 year old girl cousin
2- Grandpas
2-Grandmas
1-15 year old girl cousin
4-Aunts
4- Uncles
THANKS

I come from a family that isn't poor, but we only exchanged gifts with the immediate family. Perhaps your family can tell the extended family that they can't exchange gifts this year. For your immediate family, you can give them coupons for specific favors (making dinner for a week, doing their chores for a week, etc). Can you sew? Maybe you can make something.

Photo's in homemade frames. (catch them doing something that really says who they are and surprise them with the pic)
Bake cookies as a gift.
Coupons for services for the adults.
Fine plain, inexpensive t-shirts or sweatshirts and paint them with fabric paint or iron on decals.
Make ornaments from pinecones or other natural materials.
