Five Star Gift Ideas

Wow, lace making! That's such an interesting and unique skill, and it's wonderful to see that your grandson has found an activity he enjoys so much. Here are a few gift ideas that might be perfect for him:

1. Lace making kit: As a lace maker, your grandson likely has most of the tools he needs to create beautiful lace designs. However, a kit with different types and colors of lace-making fabrics, threads, and patterns or instructions can be a great way to give him new inspiration and expand his skill set. You can also look for a kit that includes specialty items like lace-making bobbins or weaving sticks to make the experience even more fun and comprehensive.

2. Lace-making book or magazine subscription: Your grandson may already be familiar with some of the basic lace-making techniques, but he may be interested in exploring different styles or learning more advanced skills. A book that explores the history of lace, techniques used in countries around the world or projects that focus on a particular type of lace might be perfect for your grandson. Alternatively, you could get him a subscription to a lace-making magazine that will give him even more inspiration and ideas for his next project.

3. Lace-making classes or workshops: If your grandson has already mastered the basics of lace making, he might enjoy attending a class or workshop that will help him take his skills to the next level. This is an especially great gift if there's a particular type of lace or technique that he's interested in learning. Check with local craft stores or community centers to find classes that might be of interest to him.

4. Vintage lace-making supplies: Finally, if your grandson is a collector as well as a maker, you might be able to find him some truly special and unique vintage lace-making supplies. Look for items like antique lace bobbins, vintage lace-making patterns, or even rare or hard-to-find threads or fabrics. These items look great on display when they are not being used.

No matter what you choose to get your grandson, he will surely appreciate that you are taking an interest in his hobby and are giving him something that speaks to his love of lace making. With your support, he will have no trouble developing his skills and creating beautiful pieces.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
