Gift crafting or a gift shop that crafts items

[feisle]

Some things that i think would be cool in the game both to sell for profit but mostly for gift purposes:
Chocolate (could grow cacao on ginger island)
Sweets
Soaps/lotions
Perfumes
Coconut oil
Infused oils
Other cosmetic-y bits
Bath towels/bathrobes
Gift baskets where you can assemble these things together
Jewellery (made with precious metal ore or bars and gemstones)
Picture frames
Vases
Hairbrushes/decorative handheld mirrors
Decorative glassware/kitchen things
Basic clothing things like maybe a christmas jumper

I always think it's a shame there aren’t many non-food gifts we can make or give when we definitely have lots of the ingredients already. Like flowers for perfumes. Aromatic fruits, vegetables and oils for soaps and lotions. Other "natural skin-care ingredients" and medicinal herbs like cactus, ginger, banana, honey etc.

Another suggestion is glass. We could collect sand or have a machine that crushes items foraged on the beaches. And then we'd take it somewhere or have a machine that turns it into glass. Then that could be used to make some of the above.

Jewellery could also be made by Clint.

Getting very carried away with wild fantasies but do think it could be fun to introduce a bit of diy/hobbyist crafting in some way

Some great Ideas, growing some cacao would be cool I could see that work like the pineapples do.. I'm sure we'd be doing something like that In next game no doubt. Perfumes and Jewelry would be cool as I could imagine having different kinds workbenches to craft them.

And a christmas wreath! We already have all the items to make, i always wonder why we can’t make one to give as a winter gift
