Dear Amy: I have traditionally bought gifts for my family (five adults and five children), my close friends and their children (they all buy me nice gifts too!). I used to enjoy this, but now it just seems dauntingly expensive.

Dear Amy: I have traditionally bought gifts for my family , my close friends and their children .I am 62 and still working, but this year I have no real disposable income.

I am an artist, and one Christmas a few years back, I had a similar situation with finances and I made everyone drawings. I don’t feel like I can do that again, and haven’t thought of anything else to make them . You could do something similar – keep the piece small, modest, and unframed – and give one to each family, inscribed for them. The recipient could choose to frame the piece, tape it to the fridge, or stick it in an album. You could give art supplies to the children on your list.
