Your asking an impossible question. No one makes anything; WE DO. No one will be happy or at least get an understanding of what happy is until we can all smile. It's a giving thing. When you observe another without one, especially a child, by all means give him yours. Smiles are the same in any language.

@William,

No, they aren't.

Sometimes smiles are barriers you hide behind.

Sometimes they are lies.

Sometimes they are a gift and sometimes they are a theft.

A smile can spoil you your happiness..

I'd say:

Fac felicitatem tuam

Fac --> make
felicitatem --> happiness
tuam --> your [own]

@William,

sorry maybe I shouldve been more clear. I would like to have "make your own happiness" translated into latin script. It's something my boyfriend would always say to me when I was feeling sorry for myself. He says make ur own happiness don't rely on anyone else to put a smile on your face, do what makes you happy.

@George,

thank you george. I explained the saying more to william. So he had a better understanding of my request. Not sure if the meaning would change the translation at all.

@cookie2369,

It does not make sense because it came from one of those online automated
translators.

Planto --> I fix in place -or- I plant -or- I make
vestri --> your (plural)
own --> not Latin at all, but the English word left in place
gaudium --> joy
