The winner of the gift card is Kathy E. who said…
“Gift-giving is something I love because I enjoy making personalized gifts, especially sewing up tote bags, coaster sets, quilts and table runners. I always keep the recipient’s preferences and colors in mind as I sew, always adding love to every stitch! Of course, receiving handmade gifts is the best too! Gift-giving and receiving are always appreciated with thoughtfulness and love behind the act.”

I love to give gifts that are useful. I try to find out what the other person really likes or wants and go with that. I like to receive gifts that are thoughtful, whether bought or homemade. I like to receive gift cards so I can get what I need or keep them for later use.
Over the last few years, my daughter and I have really embraced giving homemade gifts to family and friends for a lot of occasions, but especially at Christmas. They range from baked goodies, to scarves to paintings and painted coffee mugs. It is something we do together and has blessed us with precious memories.
I also love to receive homemade gifts, as well. My daughter made me a scrapbook that I absolutely will cherish always.
My favorite gift would be flowers!!!!!
Whenever I know about events or experiences that are within my budget and would be truly enjoyed by the receiver; I like to give them a ticket to an event or experience that the receiver and I might be able to do together . This is not only a gift to that person of the event or experience , but also we are creating a memory of time spent together which lasts for ever.
I like to give something that the person would really like – as personal as possible. One time my sister had no idea what to give me for Christmas. She got me 5 different $10 gift cards to restaurants near my job so I could have lunch on her! It was the PERFECT gift!!
My favorite gift to give: Gift cards or a personalized gift that shows I gave it thought and from the heart.
Favorite gift to receive: Love from my family – or kitchen item. :0)
I love to give In threes, something a person wants, something they need and something I want them to have. I like to receive Anything.
My favorite gift to give is for my family which is a day together
Forgot to put the gifts I like to receive. It is very simple actually. The love of my adult kids and all 9 of my grandkids is all I need and want. Their hugs, kisses and company are treasured gifts to me. Not trying to sound Pollyanna, but this is good for me.
I like to give gifts that have meaning and are useful. For the niece and nephews as they have gotten older gift cards so they can make purchases on their own and learn how it works. For work, I bring homemade food treats.
