So I've just become an aunt for the first time and I want to get something for the little man that is something meaningful to actually keep.

Normal presents are covered, I've got them a little keepsake box, practical every day stuff sorted etc. This is something which doesn't have to be now - think of it more like a christening gift but for a child that won't actually be christened.

Now obviously I can think of buying something or commissioning something (handmade blankets etc.) but it seems somewhat a waste to have a skill (or at least be learning one) and not putting it to good use for this kind of occasion.

Is there an item anyone can think of that would make a good gift? Doesn't need to be "useful" necessarily, just something that could be appreciated down the line. My mother thought I could make a something like a passport holder? Open to ideas!
