Well, it's the holidays, and once again, we are looking for inexpensive and meaningful gifts for family. This is always a challenge, because a) we are nearly always mostly broke, and b) I never start making Christmas gifts in July, like my mother-in-law. Anywho, this year, I promised myself I would not break the bank on last-minute stuff and things in the frenzy of holiday consumer blah blah blah. The best intentions ...
So here goes: (If you are one of my nieces, please stop reading ....... now)
For my nieces -- there are 5 of them: My awesome talented friend makes
hats, and other
fascinating hair
doodads. Two of little ladies will get something along the lines of
this. C'est adorable! My oldest niece will get something like
this, because she is now a cheerleader, and those kickers need
to be well-maintained.
My sister, another lover of hats, incidentally, will get four (count 'em 4!) of these by me, from my weary, weary hands:
My other sister, gets some housewarmish gifts, because we're spending Thanksgiving with her and her new husband, in their new(ish) house. I'm considering
these, or
these. Her gifts are still under consideration ...
And then there's the rest of the family, but I'll save that for another post.
