I need some help from fellow crafters!
My sister is getting married soon, and while I'm buying a few items from her registry, I'm thinking about making her a few items.
Background: She & her fiancee will be moving into a new apartment right afterwards. Money will be tight for at least the first few months. Other than a few kitchen items, they don't really have much.
Ok, so I pretty much got her a complete baking set (roller, pans, mixing bowls, etc etc). She specifically wants silicone oven mitts, so making those is out.
What else can I make them? I'm thinking about the small thrifty stuff that will help them save money & feel better. Stuff that no one really thinks about getting them since the focus is on the big ticket items, but that would make life not as fun without.
So far I'm thinking of his & her aprons. I can make her's all frilly & stuff, but what can I do to make his 'manly'? He's in IT and super nerdy.
I totally want to give them a lot of stuff. Part of it is because I didn't get much at my wedding, so I had to really scrimp to get the basics (like a colander). Another part is that she's my sister, so I want to go all out!

What else can I make for them? Oh, and it doesn't have to fit into the baking realm.
