Duran Duran! Hahahhahahahahaha!!!
Great idea.
I made a ton of stuff. Po', very very po', so making stuff is my salvation. I made several ceramic thingies which actually worked out pretty well; a round box with the Chinese character for "longevity" on the top and a matching necklace (the same character, smaller), a bas-relief of my daughter's hand making the "I love you" sign (for sentimental grandparents), and a plate that has an Arts-and-Crafts type magnolia design (modeled on this one, slightly better colors):

I also made a frame out of antique sari border fabric, lots of ornaments (snowflakes seem to be a theme -- clear glass beads on wire, also some ceramic ones that turned out really well, actually), and my one uncompleted (yet) Project, a linen skirt with a sari border hem. (Linen dyed to match the sari border.)
Then also made fudge that I cut out in various Christmassy shapes. (Snowman, tree, etc.) Well, "made" is probably not the right tense -- I made some last night, but the white chocolate chips I thought I was using turned out to be "white morsels" (wtf?) and combined with the sweetened condensed milk was disgustingly horribly sweet. So actually the proper fudge (with regular ol' brown chocolate) is getting made today.
