Is this a lame gift?
MommyToAshley wrote: I was cleaning out the closet under the stairs when I came across a box of my old drawings. Inside was a charcoal drawing I had done of my sister's girls when they were about 3 & 5 years old. (They're 11 and 13 yrs old now) I had done the drawing as a project for school... it's about 20X24 and already matted. I thought about seeing if I could touch it up and buy a really nice frame for it and give it to my sister for Christmas. Does that sound like a lame gift ... should I just use the money that I would spend on the frame for something else?

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Art to me is never lame...but I understand how you feel. Ever since I got my degree, I have some family member asking me to paint or make them something. I feel bad that I never do it, but who has the time these days? Plus, I'm just scared to pick it up again. Enough about me...I think it's a great idea!! May I ask why you didn't give it to her sooner?

MommyToAshley replied: I haven't done anything in years either. I never knew you had an art degree... how neat. I had planned to give it to her a long time ago, but never got around to getting a frame and then I just forgot about it.
DansMom replied: I think it's a gift that is ten times better than anything you could buy!
amymom replied: I love the idea.
JAYMESMOM replied: That is not lame at all but a great gift any mother would love.
