When I was growing up, I watched my mother make all kinds of handmade gifts, not only for Christmas but for all occasions. She would make crochet gifts, plastic canvas gifts, and sometimes she would even make sewing gifts. She would make cookies, candy and fudge to give out as gifts as well.
So this year, our budget isn’t as great as it has been in past years and I thought it would be nice to make something to give to her. I sat and tried to figure out what I could make for her that she would like. She doesn’t ever ask for anything, so I came up with the idea of making her slippers. Ones that we have bought at the store end up hurting her feet because of the padding in the bottom.
