My Boomer Tips
I think it should be the thought, not the gift that counts. However my step grandmother [now deceased] took a wellmade silk rose bouquet I made her & threw it in the trash while telling me I should've bought her something instead! So what do u think? Store, homemade?
i’d say homemade…sorry for this, but ur step grandmother was being mean and rude…
i would much rather have something that someone took the time to make then something tht they just went out and bought last minute .. i dont know why someone would ever throw out a gift that sounds really pretty
homemade seems much more personal and that you put alot of thought into the gift
I agree. I’d much prefer something that had alot of thought in it, than a store brought card.
HOME MADE.
Homemade anytime for any reason.
wow, i thought most people liked homemade. but it does depend on the person. if they’re "its the thought that counts, oh my gosh look at how much time you must have spent" type, then make, but if they’re the practical "can i return it for cash? what good does this do me?" type, then buy. or bake stuff. everyone likes the homemade batch of fudge.
HOMEMADE
Here’s something creative that will be appreciated and you will have fun doing:
Make up a crossword puzzle and have all the hints be personal inside moments and jokes that only you two would know about. Put it on a poster board and add some clipart and some pictures to it!
The crossword puzzle could be time consuming and a bit frustrating … you could do the same idea with a WORDSEARCH or WORDFIND puzzle.
Put your computer skills to work! Use Excel, get clipart from Yahoo Images Search, copy them, and reformat them, use a gluestick to put on posterboard.
If you’d rather not use the computer so much, try graph paper to sketch out the puzzle and use real pictures or pictures from magazines.
