And I drew my mom. The theme (my sisters idea) is something that makes you laugh. Can get 1 or multiple gifts totaling $50. I have no idea where to start. My mom is very reserved and won’t find anything funny that has a hint of crudeness.
should be replacing or having someone else repair those items that need your constant fixing and fiddling.
As for tools, you don't need to carry around 15 different little tools. Most of them are useless or readily available. You only really need a good compact folding pliers and a good knife. Most multi-tools have terrible knives. Get a good pocket knife that suits your needs. They also make nice gifts.
I don't see where giving a gift certificate is any more a thoughtful gift than just giving money. All it does is it forces them to spend it at a certain place.
I've also asked for some gourmet rubs, marinades, and hot sauces from Sur La Table

Wait a minute ... that doesn't sound right on a couple of different levels.
Just use protection - gift certificate and let them make the choice. That way you are protected against the wrong choice.
