I need Ideas

Every year since I was a child, I make a gift for my Mom for Christmas. As I got older, it turned into big projects like a painted foot stool, table lamp, quilt and things like that. This year I have no ideas and I can't break the tradition! Anyone have any great ones? I don't knit or crochet. I wish I did though.

Go to Michael's, they have a lot of ideas.

Maybe a Christmas ornament? There is a catalogue called Annie's Attic that has really beautiful ornament kits you make with beads and pins- you can find it online.
