ubereglu Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I like USEFUL presents best as sometimes they're the most thoughtful! No they're not! Anyone who has made anything on here has done it with love and thought, be it decorative, or a picture, or useful. I didn't mean it in terms of this swap, as it's always lovely to receive handmade things, but for Christmas from my family-eg, I still haven't found a use for my huge glass chicken from my sister's husband...
