[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like blankets, but people gave us handmade blankets for baby births and while they're beautiful, I don't really have a use for them (weird size, can't be washed). You should go into it knowing it might get attic-boxed or donated. Only put in the time if you're fine with that.

Somebody gave us hand painted decorative plates with our names and wedding date on them, and I have no idea what to do with them: can't donate because of our names, but can't use them for anything. I would honestly rather they gave us nothing, ungrateful as that sounds. [/quote]

I have plates like those. We actually use them as birthday plates for everyone in our house. We all eat our birthday donut on the plate with a candle and sing.

I do agree that handmade things are hard to use. I don’t like that I can’t wash knit things but I do appreciate quilts. My in laws got a quilt for their wedding. Never used it. Their granddaughter is obsessed with it and sleeps with it nightly. So you never know. [/quote]

So they kept it for 50+ years just because? [/quote]
