frames and tshirts

Submitted by Carrie Kirby on November 25, 2007 - 18:38.

I am doing framed portraits for everyone this year. I'll actually end up paying a lot because we are having our girls photographed by a very talented photographer, but it's something I really wanted to do *anyway* so it allows me to fulfill that wish along with my Christmas list at the same time. Selfish or frugal? You decide, but when I polled my family members, they all said they wanted the portraits.

Your Tshirts idea makes me think for future years, though. It would be fun to come up with some cute Tshirt messages or images to have printed. A family or local in-joke, or some homemade artwork. As a recipient, homemade gifts always trump retail, yet like you, I'm not crafty at all.
