how would you feel if.... *pic pg 20*pg27* UPDATE

Someone brought a home made gift to your child's birthday party?

We're broke. Our bills are paid, but atm we have nothing for little extras. So, what can I do for the back to back parties this weekend??

I decided to crochet them hats. Both girls are turning 1. I already have the supplies....

I feel bad though... :-/ like they might think I'm cheap or something. One mom won't care- we are good friends and she knows money is tight.. the other? We barely know each other- but our kids get along well. Both moms are in a different tax bracket (to put it simply)

So, would you find it tacky?

*update*
Both moms loved the hats! Thank you ladies for building my confidence on the matter. Because of the overwhelming support, I am now setting up a shop!! Thank you!! ♥

This!



My DH's old co worker crocheted my son a blanket when he was born. To me that was the best gift, because she made it. I never questioned whether it was because she was broke. Never thought of it until I read this post and he is 6y/o. I still have it in my room where the kids can't destroy it. :)

Awe I would love it! I would also appreciate it a lot more from the fact that YOU made it.

Not at all. I'd think that's sweet

Thank you.
Yeah it does take time. I'm personalizing them too
1. Her nickname is (name) bear, or little bear- so I'm adding little bear ears and a flower.
2. Super girly and loves hats/shoes. I'm putting a ribbon/ bow on hers

Homemade gifts are my favorite. They show the giver actually put time and thought into the gift, and that means a lot.

 I think especially for a one year old a homemade hat would be adorable. I love homemade gifts though, they mean a lot to me. We have had many Holidays where I have had to make things for people because we were to broke.

I would love it! You took the time out and made my child a gift that they would definitely wear this upcoming winter. It's better then some cheap toy that will be thrown in a toy box and never seen again.

If love it to I also don't mind my kids being given used stuff either if its in good shape kids really don't care if the parents care then that's on them not you.

If you have the extra time and supplies maybe you can make them each a scarf to match. I think it is a wonderful idea!
