Handmade Christmas Gift Ideas - Posters for Women (and Men!)

It is very difficult to find great gifts for men. In our ongoing series (9/21-12/24), tonight's post offers one idea in the form of a printable poster from Noel at MotivationalQuotes. I love projects that I can print in the comfort of my home. It eliminates the crowds. It saves on the fuel costs for a car trip. And, it is easy and low-cost. The link is here.

This site focuses on uplifting quotes for women but the majority of posters can also be given to men. They can be downloaded as a printable .pdf file and they print in an 8x10-inch size.

This size graphic poster can either be hung or displayed on a desk, mantle, or nightstand.

Noel has quite a list of categories for these motivational posters, including life, love, time, worry, and more. I even saw a John Lennon quote that is perfect for your guys.

The one in the photo is from the Life category. I like it because it is very difficult to find motivational posters for the men in our lives. Some men are too macho, or think they are, to put up with an uplifting slogan on a photo of a sunset. The graphics on this poster not only catches their eye, but draws them to read the words and hopefully, to help them with life issues.

There are over 90 full color posters to choose from. You might just end up doing all your shopping here for your holiday list.

For other projects in my series, just look along the right sidebar for the label "Christmas Gift Projects." I hope to post only tips that do not require knitting, crocheting, machine sewing, tatting, embroidery, or any other skilled technique.
