"Make oneself" is an expression that means to craft or create something for yourself. Some cat lovers will make themselves a cat tree because they don't want to purchase an expensive one from online or the store. Some women will sew her own dresses or clothing. Here are some examples of "make oneself" in a sentence: Ex: Why don't you make yourself a sandwich for lunch? Ex: Her grandpa made her a dresser. Ex: Can you make me a dress for my wedding? Great question!
