　　A self-written newspaper and T-shirts with unlimited choices of patterns can become the kinds of priceless gifts that money can't buy.

　　Birthday presents,gifts for loved ones and children's educational toys all offer potential for the imaginative creator.Every DIY gift,which sends a special message or has a special meaning,is outstanding.That's what creativity is all about.
