Gift Closet Grows Fuller

The gift closet and giving. Is it the thought that matters, or the gift itself?

Ever in a hurry and don't have time to go to the store to buy a kids birthday party gift? Come to our house -we have a gift closet, so to speak.

Besides wrapping paper, blank cards, and gift bags, we have an assortment of art projects, toys and candles. Most have been purchased on sale for this reason, but I hate to admit, some things found their way there after Christmas. How many picture frames and scrapbooks can one have, but they still made their way under our tree.

Do you feel bad regifiting something? Items like clothing can be exchanged or even donated, but candles, picuture frames and trinkets?

When you give a gift, do you buy something special for that person, or do you too have a gift closet?
