Wow I love this "gift" mindset!! I have never thought of my creative business that way but it certainly helps with the anxiety and worry around what I make. I also think it would be so lovely if we all got back to making the gifts we actually give loved ones for birthdays/special occasions. There is something so much more valuable in giving and receiving handmade presents.

I so agree! Last holiday season I made everyone in my family custom journals tailored to their personalities and it was so much more fun than buying them stuff!

Thats amazing!! I got my kids to make a collage for their Grandmas last birthday and we bought a frame it so it actually looked great. And Grandma loved it :) Things like that mean so much more than random stuff from big-box stores, I think.
