#MakingTime Day 31 (the last day!)

As we come to the end of our 31 days of Making Time, it feels like the perfect time to create a gift of thanks. So today… 

Your Day 31 Making Time challenge:  

For one hour… make a gift for yourself or someone else

There’s something really special about homemade gifts. They’re by far and away the best kind of present to give and the best kind to receive. 

The simplest things, like a photo album or scrapbook of memories, cookies you’ve baked yourself, a CD of meaningful songs, a blank recipe book filled with your favourite recipes, your own framed artwork – a sketch, painting, poem, or short story you’ve done – can mean so much more than anything you’ve bought.

 

Take one whole hour to make something special for yourself, or for someone you love. What would you love? Or what would that special someone really appreciate?

 

Find somewhere peaceful where you can sit without being interrupted and create, create, create! As you make it, think about why you think so much of that person, and what you are grateful to them for. If you are making the gift for yourself, this is the time to give yourself a virtual hug.
