Homemade Hillbilly Gag Gifts

Homemade hillbilly gag gifts are perfect for the person who has everything. They also make good gifts for the person who says he does not want to celebrate his birthday. Gag gifts can be practical items that the person might use, such as a tube of Preparation H, or other funny items that will cause everyone to laugh. Gag gifts are usually inexpensive and can be made from items around the house.


Hillbilly Wind Chimes


Homemade hillbilly wind chimes make a good housewarming gift for the couple that is just starting out and needs some decorations. Use an old wire coat hanger, some rusty tools and a little bit of fishing wire. Tie the fishing wire to the rusty tools--the rustier, the better. Make sure to cut the wire into different lengths. Then tie the tools onto the coat hanger and you have instant wind chimes. Tell your guests of honor that these are special wind chimes because they are their first.


Redneck Briefcase


Start with a pair of men's briefs. Make sure they are clean--even though this is a gag gift, it should be sanitary. Sew the legs together and then attach ribbon or an elastic band to make a handle at the waistband. Now you have a briefcase. You can even take a felt-tipped pen and white "briefcase" on the underwear so they know what it is.


Portable Telephone


Take two tin cans, tie a string between them and give them away as portable phones. These "phones" are usually used by children when they are playing. You can also call this the redneck or hillbilly cell phone. Decorate the cans by putting stickers on them or personalizing them. Make sure to tell the person to stay in touch.
