    I am no longer going to make pureses for family I worked soooo hard getting every one a purse to only have them not like them. They were like oh ths is what you got us? It is not what i expected exspeacially after working so hard but one thing i have learned it is not their thing. I felt like i worked for nothing. I wish they could know how much work and love went into them.

    That is part of the problem-they have no idea how much work or love goes into making a gift for someone. It is tough being disappointed in that way. I am sorry that happened to you!
    Many hugs, Ruth

    I am so sorry. Some people just don't appreciate our hard work.

    wow, I made all the women in my family purses this yr for Christmas too, they all said they like them or at least thats what I was told, but i do think they did, it takes me about 4 hours a purse, its a labor of love, sorry this was a bad experience for you.

    Yes, not everyone loves homemade gifts...sad, but true. Just make purses for those that do appreciate them and everyone else gets a gift card. (((( Hugs to you))))
    Blessings,

    I guess no one taught them basic manners...and as I say that, I'm hoping that 'they' aren't your kids! :)
