This season, join the handcrafted craze and give gardening gifts that are more from the heart than the wallet.  Try seed bombs in a hand-printed bag by a Cincinnati print shop.  Dress up old clay pots with DIY gilding.  Pot amaryllis or paperwhite bulbs for a home-grown present.  Decorate a store-bought rosemary tree. Create gift baskets of local treats like jams, honey and maple syrup. Or make ornaments from backyard cuttings.
