    How about this?? Everyone needs a baby head hanging on their wall and you could easily personalize it

    Really curious - is this gift a standard item in your area but just not something of use for your sister?

    Or will no one inform this lady (tactfully) so she can cease spending time/money on a gift no one really likes so she just keeps making them??

    The pics are hilarious in this thread! But some are not that bad to me. I really want to see a pic of the deer with bouquet on the head!

    Different strokes for different folks. It reminds me of this pickup truck I saw one day. The truck had a colorful, painted drawing of THE TRUCK ITSELF on its side. And the truck IN the drawing had a pic of the truck on it as well. If I looked closely enough, I'm sure the picture within the picture probably had the truck on that truck too! It was the funniest thing. People really do like different things.

    6) can be personalized (but the assumption is that it doesn't DEPEND on personalization)...right, OP???

    Some additional thoughts:





    I like the macrame one too, lol!!

    I think you need to go with, we arent naming baby until they are born. And then let her give the gift, take a pic and share it with us!

    Honestly, different people like different things..... some of the things on this thread I sorta like. Perhaps not enough to spend $$ on, but I do not think they are all hideous.

    Did anyone else immediately think "the last visible dog"? (For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, see Russell Hoban's The Mouse and his Child?)

    Here ya go!

    It is exactly like this, except painted on a wooden pallet for an extra folksy vibe. It's not exactly ugly really, just sooooo random. It's not like we decorated her room in a woodland theme or bambi or something where it would make sense. Just "here's a wooden picture of a deer with flowers on it's head for your baby's room" type thing. deer - Edited.jpg

    I am literally laughing out loud in DD’s gymnastics class waiting area! The other parents think I’m a freak. Thank you for this!
