Heads or Tails This Time of Year

December23

This week at Heads or Tails we are to think on the following subject to write about. TAILS – “This Time Of Year”.

With all the doom and gloom being talked about by the media, it would be easy to fall into a depression. I am not going to let them get to me! My kids have the same attitude which you can witness on my post about their newest purchase.

I choose to spend the holiday season looking at the positive side of the slump in our business. I have more time to sew! I made this mini laptop bag for an online friend. I don’t have a mini laptop so I had to take the bag to Best Buy to try it out. The salesmen thought it was pretty cool.

   We’ve toned down our shopping this year due to the economic situation. My family set a cap of gift sending which helped a lot. We found we could do just as nicely spending less even.

   Homemade gifts are always so nice. That bag is beautiful!!!

   Neat bag! I asked a friend to make one for me several years ago and I love it! She had no idea what I meant, so I had to draw pictures, fold fabric, yadda yadda. Happy Holidays to you and yours!

   A more frugal season for many, but I think they may realise more of the Xmas spirit – that it isn’t all about money. At least, i hope so.

    I really think you should set up an Etsy store for your laptop bags! I looked everywhere for one before I remembered that you were such a great sewer!
