Absent-minded
December 29th, 2009
This year for Christmas I actually got around to making some of the gifts. I have often intended to, but fall short every year. Thanks to tight money situations, this year I followed through and made a number of gifts that I was quite proud of. However, I (being absent-minded) completely forgot to take pictures of any of them! I wanted to show all of you because I am not a crafty person by any means, yet these were easy and fun gifts (plus cheap) to make.
So, be patient with me. I am going to my family’s house later this week and will track down the presents and snag some pictures. That is, if I remember to bring my camera.

I whole heartedly agree with you. Things were tight for us, too, this year, forcing me to be more creative as well. I’ll round up some of the goods and post them soon. I am really pleased with how it all turned out. And I didn’t miss the stores much, either.
I hope you remember your camera! I would love to see pictures of what you made. I did a completely homemade Christmas in 2008, and only a small portion of homemade things this year. Too much going on - I couldn’t handle it. But we come from small families, so we don’t have oodles of gifts to do anyway. I am hoping to do more handmade things next year, and am trying to glean ideas from peoples’ craftings this year! So yes, pleeeeease share!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
this type of thing (being absent minded) happens to me so often, I’m not sure I’d even notice it in others.
But I do hope you get pictures - would be nice to see what you made!
I LOVE your gifts for us and will try to take some pictures. -As soon as we got home and Emma could see herself in the mirror, she kept turning to look at her reflection with keen admiration :))
Everyone’s creativity made for the most fun and amazing gifts!
Congrates! on the new little one on the way. I’m so happy for you all. I hope you’re feeling well!
