Well I decided for birthdays this year, I wanted to do what my BF does and make them with thought and love. I try and give gifts for my friend's children that are practical e.g. books. This time I wanted to be creative and so I decided to make an apron. Aprons I am told are the easiest things to do and so I got the 'How to make Aprons for dummies'. Well I must be extremely stupid as I did not really know what to do. Lucky my mum is an experienced sewer and she helped me with tricky pockets. It went well and I hope that Chloe and Emma will like them. I also hope they fit!!
So cute! I guess I've got to keep up with the homemade thing then, huh? Though in all honesty, my gifts are usually combinations of store bought and homemade presents. I bought a baby outfit to go with Char's mobile and Rhi is getting a homemade necklace and some little storebought knickknacks.
ReplyDeleteNow, what to do for KB's bday next month? I was thinking of making a cake but I need to figure out something else, too. Hmm... A treasure hunt in the backyard maybe? A grab bag of different kinds of sushi-grade fish? We never go all out for each other like we do for friends and family, but maybe it's time to start!
