The Joy of Making Gifts



Knowing that Lily just got a new Kitchen for her Birthday, I figured some pretty felt treats would be a wonderful addition and with some pretty pink measuring bowls...what more can a girl want! Maybe....some pretty Birdie hair clips with a necklace to match! I tell you, I am really enjoying making gifts for Gi's friends. I kinda think about the child and do something I think is in tune with their personality. I always ask Gi what she thinks to get her in on it. I will ask her " So do you think Lily will really love it if I make her some felt cakes, cookies and strawberries and also some birdie clips and a necklace for her Birthday?"  She got very excited and said "Yes, she will! Make them, Make them!!"  I let her cut my thread for me sometimes to keep her part of it. It's really a joy to make something and be able to give it as a gift. It is very rewarding and so far all of the time extremely very well received and appreciated. Next Birthday is Lucy...hmm what will we make for her? Anyway... Enjoy Lily, we love you!!
