With our Secret Santa sign up underway, I thought this would be a fun conversation to have. Tell us about some of the best DIY gifts you would like to receive (or have received) or maybe some you'd like to make! Post up photo ideas for inspiration if you have them!

I'd love to make a small aquascape if someone was interested. Also... not sure what shipping would be, but I have a little rock left from my aquascape - and I LOVED building it.

I've done watercolor pieces both of fish and reefs in general, I also crochet, and have been working on this blanket in my spare time as well as making my own reef related squares to replace some of the ones in the pattern I don't like.

That is soooo cute!!!! And that takes some patience and amazing talent!!!


As a gift to receive, I'd love a top to my new tank. That may be a handmade gift that someone could make if they know how to use plexiglass or acrylic.

I also have a 3d printer. I have printed some hannah checker holders for some friends nearby. (If you're in Charlotte, hit me up if you want one!)

Seeing all of @revhtree’s awesome watercolor painting I would have to go with some sort of reef related art as well!


Pffft @revhtree held out on the best one, was supposed to be included with the 2021 Partner Member package ;)
