I tend to think of adult gifts as being hard to fit in the 'handmade' category....but really they don't have to be at all!!!!  We've already shown you adult Socks and Pajamas that will make great gifts, and don't forget those teacher totes and notebook covers that are also great for girlfriends and the in-laws!!!!  Today, Lisa is here to share the perfect gift for any cools in your life.  While she has whipped up a gorgeous floral version, I can completely see my BBQ loving little brother wearing this as he teaches his kids the art of the grill.
