So we have a tradition since the first child was born. We make calendars for the grandparents, full of photos of the kid(s) and give them as gifts. By 'make' I mean that we assemble them online and print them through staples. It's not quite as homespun as I'd like, but I feel like the gift counts as handmade because a) i took and edited the photos b) all creative decisions were made by me and c) I MADE THE CHILDREN.
If you were really super make-your-won-soap crafty, you could actually cut and paste a calendar together, and it would really count as handmade. But I've got more than one of these to make, and we never print off photos.
I'll throw some thumbnails of the calendar pix up, or post a photo of the calendar itself once they're picked up. (I'm currently agonizing over the selection of the *last* photo.)
