Christmas is just around the corner and this entails the purchase of gifts, presents, surprises, dinners and meals with family and friends. Every year we are left with fewer ideas and these are less and less original. At Fustes Montgròs we write this post as a source of inspiration and to contribute ideas so you don't go blank this Christmas. 

At Fustes Montgros we offer you a range of materials and formats so you can choose them in your projects. Visit our online store here: 

The idea of wooden gifts

The easy thing is to go for the usual presents: slippers for being at home, padded socks to avoid being cold and the occasional bottle of good wine. But what if we go further and think of other options to surprise our loved ones?  

Wooden gifts can be very original, inspiring and beautiful options. We bring you several ideas so you can start making a list.

4 possible gifts made with natural wood

• Retro wooden boxes: This type of box is perfect for decorating the living room by placing some plants inside, or it can even serve as a centrepiece for your table. This gift is simple to make and it is possible to do it with natural wood. 
• Wooden letters: Wooden letters are perfect for decorating living room and bedroom walls at really affordable prices. Normally they don't cost more than 5 euros. We can find all the letters in the alphabet, using them to form words (for example, the names of our relatives, "Merry Christmas", "Welcome", etc.) On the other hand, it can also be a good option to decorate our home, such as living room furniture or our bedroom. 
• Wooden postcards: Wooden postcards can be very original gifts to send directly to whomever we want, or to accompany gifts, since we can personalise them ourselves, or simply write on them with a marker. 
  
  

Christmas decoration made of wood

• Candle holder: A Christmas classic is to give stars and candles. A good option is to unite them and thus give perfect atmosphere and warmth for Christmas. 
• Christmas Tree Ornaments With Wooden Stars: Wooden stars for the Christmas tree is a very classic and perfect choice for creating a Christmas atmosphere. You can create infinite models and designs! This type of decoration can be colourful or minimalist, or classic or full of glitter. Being wooden, it will give a very natural touch to your decoration. 
• Wooden Christmas Balls: Wooden stars for the Christmas tree is a very classic and perfect choice for creating a Christmas atmosphere. You can create infinite models and designs! This type of decoration can be colourful or minimalist, or classic or full of glitter. Being wooden, it will give a very natural touch to your decoration. 
• Cube-shaped candle holder
   Cube-shaped Christmas candle holders are perfect in any corner of the house. The magic happens when the candle is lit inside. 

  Each face of the candle holder can be carved with the shape of a star, hearts or snowflakes, and as soon as the candle is lit the figures will light up.
