Provided that,

Scott charges $125 for an hour for his time for manufacturing custom made wood products.

As he prepares a gift for his wife, he spends 15 hours on such preparation.

If such time was used by him in his commercial activities then he would have generated revenue of $125 15 = $1,875. Further the amount is just related to a single individual, where as economy relates to entire country.

Now, when we talk about economy this amount of $1,875 for a country like US will not affect at any material level to the GDP. As this amount is so immaterial, there will be no impact on GDP.
