Christmas Presents
15/f
For Christmas I was planning on making my parents a clay bowl in my art class at school and giving it to them as a gift. Now we had a school closure for a few days (due to a storm) and I wasn't able to finish the bowl in time even though I've been working on it for weeks.
All I have to give to my parents on Christmas morning is a set of wine glasses (which I got them last year as well but they all broke).
I don't have a job or any money to buy them something else. What can I do? My friends are all giving their parents tons of gifts and things. I feel like I should have tried harder and gotten them more.
What can I do? And should I feel this way?
Thank you

I doubt your parents will mind and should understand about the school problem.
How about making them a voucher so that they have something to open. This could say "I promise to give the bearer one handmade bowl" or if you don't want to tell them what it is, put 'present' instead of bowl. Then, when you do go back to school and can finish it, they still have something to look forward to when everyone else has already opened all their presents.
Hope that helps and good luck.

There's not much you can do. Just explain to your parents that you would of given them the clay bowl, but due to the storm..
I'm sure your parents will understand and the set of wine glasses should be enough. Just think, better then nothing!
About the clay bowl, you could always just finish it once school starts again and then just give it to them once it's done. I'm sure a couple weeks won't make a difference on when you give it to them.
Good luck!

Parents don't care what they get, but if you tell them that you are still working on theirs, they will know you really do care and were working hard on their gift. Just because your friends are able to or doing so much for their parents doesn't change how much they will care or lov eyou gift!

Make them something else....possibily a photo album, or something very inexpensive. I hope that this helps, let me know what you come up with.
