I want your opinions . . .

Thank you to everyone who became fans of "Eeny-meeny-miny-BOW!" on FB . . . it was really sweet of you all and gave Lisa a boost when she needed it most.

Since then, Lisa has made some adorable bows for Bebe and won't let me pay for them.  I want to do something nice for her, and want your opinions.

1)  I'd like to offer to take pics of Lisa's products and create a website for her.  It would be easy to get some little one's together to take pictures.  Plus, I've noticed that Lisa takes pictures of her products outside.  While I think her products are amazing, I think it would make her site more appealing if we did something creative to showcase her products.  

2)  They got a new kitten yesterday.  I picked up some little cat toys to give them tomorrow, but I was thinking about paying for the kittens neuter in a few months.  They are able to pay for it, but I was thinking it would be nice to do something like that as a surprise.  My boss surprised me this morning though by calling me to offer this at no charge from him . . . so its kind of like I don't HAVE TO do it since he will anyhow.  :)  (Moments like that remind me of why I stick it out with my boss through the bad times . . . he is really a good guy.)

3)  Get them tickets to take their kids to the new Pretend City kids museum nearby.  I think their son is a bit too old to enjoy this though.  I don't know if they are sports fans, but my dad suggested getting them seats to an Angel's game.

Any other suggestions????

Re: I want your opinions . . .

  • I think setting up the website and doing pictures for her would be a very nice gesture but I'm not sure how to go about not offending her on the pictures that she has been taking.

    Or depending on where she gets her materials maybe a gift card there and a basket of other goodies.

    My thoughts exactly re: the pictures/website.  Code's suggestion of a gift card or something related to her materials is also great.  If you know of an activity her entire family really enjoys (like you mentioned the sports games), I think tickets would be a great way to give them a day out together.  I'm sure she'll be really appreciative of whatever you opt for!

  • I think the pictures and website idea is great.  Along with the materials cost/gift certificate.  It would help her to maybe make some more things and then get lots more pictures taken.  Does she have an etsy shop or is she just selling through ebay?

    Ditto this.
