Hey, those of you who have taken the Handmade Pledge this year with your holiday gift buying, what are you getting for all of the dudes in your life? I'm always curious.
Fun question! I do admit, before I took the pledge, I did get him some clothes. (non-handmade) But I bought some prints off of etsy. I also bought him this glass http://www.etsy.com/view_transaction.php?transaction_id=6123340 since he always has a glass of water around the house. It may be too cute for a guy, but he'll use it, b/c it's funny! hope that helps!
I couldn't take the pledge because I always, always buy people books for Christmas, and because this year I'm getting my mother something she'll actually like -- and she likes Talbots. Ha. My boyfriend and I have decided not to spend too much this year so I'm getting him a Flickr Pro account (ha!) and this little print because it's totally his style: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=8153686
Oh and another thing: if he didn't already have a thing to put his laptop in, I'd get Geoff something from these guys: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5250089 Their laptop wallets are really, really nice!
I didn't make the pledge, but I've been thinking about this:

A USB stick from legos?!? Only thing is, will I be allowed to raid our own lego stash for these, or will I have to buy more?
Fun question!
