JOANIE'S WORLD

Wednesday, June 06, 2007

Recently, I've been harping to myself about projects that I've done as gifts or as RAK's and the fact that I've felt like maybe it wasn't worth it. Well, I came across this blog and I am linking a post for you to read. It brought some things in perspective and I will no longer feel that my efforts were *less than* because I didn't spend money.
So here's the post:

Carol said...: I couldn't agree with this more Joanie! I hate when people spend money on me - hate it, hate it, hate it! But I do so love to get hand made items!!!! {{{hugs}}} to you, as your efforts for others are never a waste of time and are always worth it :-) Thanks for the nice link.; 9:44 AM

Karoline said...: I totally agree with her, thanks for sharing her words Joanie; 3:03 PM
Cindy said...: Great thoughts...thank you for sharing!

I recently had a dilemma about taking the effort to make a gift vs. going out and buying one. I certainly appreciate hand made things, and hope others do too...so I opted for that rather than taking the "easier" option.; 8:05 PM
