When he was a kid, this man’s family was too poor to spend extra money on new toys. Instead of not having any fun as a child, he just let his imagination and creativity run wild. He found a way to make his own figurines out of the simplest (and cheapest) household items, and thus, the Twist Tie Guys were born.

By just wrapping twist ties around themselves, this guy was able to make tons of figurines for himself as a kid.

So, if you want to get your kid something really special this Christmas, just hand him or her a pile of twist ties. They’ll (hopefully) know what to do.
