At work this year our theme was the Twelve Days of Christmas, I saw this idea online somewhere so I made "A Partridge in a Pear Tree" funny how some people are, I though it was quite cute but the lady I gave it to made no comment just popped it back in the box. Hmmm, next year I'm thinking my Secret Santa gifts will ALL be purchased. I'll save the specials for the people I know will appreciate them!
I think it's gorgeous!! What could be nicer than a hand made gift and such a lovely one!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Wendy, that handmade is better and I think it is gorgeous! I also think that unless you do some kind of craft, sometimes people don't appreciate the time and effort you have put into making something for them. That aside I wish you and your family all the best for 2012!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Michelle.
It's lovely,it could fly to my house and live happily with us.xxxhappy New Year love from me and B .xxx
ReplyDeleteI wish I got a secret Santa gift like the one you made. The thought and effort would be well appreciated. Your gift was cute as a button and when I read your post to my hubby he was disappointed by their response also.
ReplyDeleteHave lovely and safe New Year..........
I have learnt the hard way too Sue, about who to give handmade to and who not too.. I think your little bird is one of the cutest I have seen..
ReplyDeleteSue I am really upset by this. I know you did not receive the gratitude you deserved on this gift... BUT don't ever stop giving what comes from your heart. who cares if she didn't appreciate it, does she ever appreciate anything anyone ever gives her. NO she feels that she deserves better then everyone else. If you get her next year buy her a Slap Chop LOL. you made a huge effort, thanks for playing along.
