A ring core and an inlay strip or chips are the basics for creating an eye-catching ring.

Take the plunge this year, and handcraft at least one of your gifts.

To jump start your creative process, check out the ring cores and knife kits featured here. Minimal tools and supplies are required for the ring and knife projects.

Our other 10 gift ideas include handy tools for building and home maintenance, items for working safely, a fun model kit, two new books, a gift that gives all year long, and the “anyone” gift.
