June's almost over, and I'm running out of time. REALLY, I AM.
One of the upsides of belonging to an enormous family?
Birthdays after birthdays. ;)
And when I say 'birthdays after birthdays', I mean our calendar is fully loaded from January to December.
No kidding!
This July, we have 3 birthdays in line:
My sister, A, on the 3rd
My sister, M, on the 9th
and
My not-so-little-anymore-brother, C on the 15th
And 3 more on August:
My aunt C on the 9th
My Princess A on the 11th
and
My aunt T on the 19th
There wouldn't be any big celebration. REALLY.
But I want to make their days somehow special by giving them a little something.
And since I love crafting, and it's sometimes more practical, I want to make the gifts myself.
I also personally think that personalized gifts are more heartfelt;
but it's still the thought that counts.
For me, all personalized gifts are lovely.
With these number of celebrants,
I really need to keep going.
MUST.START.NOW
Wow... share what you made sis ha. I also love crafting when I find time. And if I don't have time I just browse the net for and appreciate what other's have made. :)
ReplyDeleteSame here, sis. Actually, I've really been meaning to share everything I made, kaya lang most of the time I forget to take pictures. But I'll try to be mindful na this time.

ReplyDeleteso many birthday affairs! i have to hand it to you for being organized, i have a tendency to ask to pass when i feel my day will be overwhelming lols
ReplyDeleteI don't know about me being organized. Most of the time, I find myself cramming. While you have the tendency to ask to pass, I have the tendency to start early, procrastinate, then cram. Lol. But nonetheless, I make sure I finish what I started, even if it's a minute or two late.
Deletei like personalized gifts. :)

Lots of birthday celebrations. I know someone who hated it because she have to go to different occasions every week.
ReplyDeleteSomeone hates celebrations? Whoa!
DeleteWell, for me, I dont see it as something to attend every week, I see it as a quality time opportunity every week. ;)
Wow! Busy, busy... Galing natin talaga mag handle ng tons of work.
ReplyDeletesis, post your crafts after you finish. we might get interested to try it din.
ReplyDeleteSarap naman. Ibig sabihin non-stop din ang handaan. Yum!
ReplyDeleteWith your skills, I'm sure you'll be able to create something really great for each one of them in no time at all.
ReplyDeletei love to make personalized gifts din but limited lang powers ko for Christmas ;)
ReplyDeleteenjoy the parties!
Daming celebration happy birthday to all =) Personalized is more cute!
ReplyDeleteYou really have to start thinking and working on what personalized gift to give for all the birthday celebrants. I love making those too as a gift! :-)
ReplyDeleteBusy months ahead! I wish you can post your craft projects if you find time. I heart handmade! :)
ReplyDeleteYeah good ideas for gifts are personalized ones because it shows that you make extra effort on creating and finding the right gift for that person. It is much better to receive a personal gift (for me) rather than an expensive one from the department store. Usually may kaparehas kasi if ever na binili lang.

Handmade gifts are really more special for me... Not just for the talent invested by the giver, but the time itself in making the gift, makes it priceless!
ReplyDeleteIf you're ever into polymerclay, let me know :) I have Nendo, hihi.
