Pay It Forward 2011 Challenge

On FB I took the 2011 Pay It Forward Challenge that my cousin had posted.

What is it you ask? Well, I posted as my status "..... the first 3 people who comment I will mail a handmade/homemade item in 2011 & you must take the challenge & do it in return"

So I was thinking - this is EASY. I'll have people comment that have little girls & I can make hair bows for them. Or someone who likes purses & I'll give them one of my handmade clutch purses.

Well to my dismay - the 1st person to comment - Tracy - she has a little girl but is SO far ahead of me in the creative world! I learn things from her! and I want to be like her when I grow up! :)

2nd person to comment - Mandy - my wonderful little sister. She does not have a little girl, and she does not like carrying a purse! Psh!!!!

3rd person to comment - Mary - a friend that does not have a little girl & probably wouldn't benefit from my purses :) although her college aged daughter said a hairbow would be nice - but this is for Mary :)

Sooooo at first I was bummed. I was thinking - this was gonna be so simple! I had it all figured out in my head....now I have to actually think about something special to make!!! And then I realized it was called a CHALLENGE! So I embraced the challenge.....I have a little idea of what to send these friends of mine....but I really want to make it special! I am hoping to have it to them by March if not sooner. But watch out Tracy, Mandy & Mary.....it'll have alot of thought put into it!!! :)

Take the Challenge - Pay It Forward!!!
