I just took the handmade pledge.
I am going to try and give some gifts this christmas that are handmade. My goal is to give something thatI have made (time permitting) or something handmade by someone else (like from etsy or made it).
I am also going to broaden it a little and include gifts that will inspire the reciever to create handmade; like a knitting pattern, a ‘how to’ book, craft supplies or a journal.
I don’t know if I am going to be able to do this for all of my family, but I am going to try.
The kids will get their usual stash of toys but I will make sure that they get at least one special handmade gift.
Don’t worry honey, I might break the rules for you … you can still have an X-box game.
i was thinking of bending the rules to include books about making things as well – glad I am not the only one.
What a great idea! Thanks for sharing the link to made it – I had never heard of it before.
You are brave! Very courageous and I commend you!
Now – can we request what we want? If so, I want one of the needle books. Very pretty!
How rude am I??
