I wonder if any of you could give me some suggestions?

I'm trying hard to only buy Christmas presents which are handmade for my family but I am really stuck as to what to buy my 19 year old male cousin.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what 19 year olds like? I normally resort to buying him a music voucher but would like to be a bit more imaginative this year.

I look forward to your suggestions :)

Hmmm, men have always been hard to buy for! What about a nice leather wallet with his initials on, or a saint christopher icon on either a chain or keyfob, dressing gown, a photoframe for his room (one he can use to put either a picture of his g/friend or a group of his mates), a ring, (finger, nipple or belly <ewww>)?

It all depends on how much you want to spend really and of course what his likes/dislikes are.

What about a watch. I got one for Peter (Beadsage) for my sis in law but I'm sure somebody on here makes them for men too.

Cheers.

I do cufflinks in polymer clay. Can be made in team colours!!http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2371/1491756902_2b00abc2f3.jpg?v=0

Does he have a door? He needs a chicken doorstop then!! Joking aside, this guy on Etsy does nice ties - don't know if he wears them but I like them http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=58778

The cufflinks are cool, I wanted to make some of those but wasnt sure where you get the actually plain cuff linky bit from.

I love the idea of the cufflinks but for my BinL (I have PM'd you)

The ties are beautiful too but he's not a smart 19 year old but great pressie for someone else though :)

I think either a watch or wallet might be the route to go down!

Thank you all so much. You all have such great ideas :D
