FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Maybe this would do better in Open Mic, but it's okay. So, I guess I have to get something for my Confirmation sponsor to give her on Confirmation. I was thinking this: http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/store/product/11-phatmass-pint-glass/ But my mom says she doesn't think that would be a good idea for the recipient. I really like the idea of a garden gnome dressed as a bishop, like with the bishop's hat and stuff, but I can't seem to find one anywhere! Offer ideas people!!

Jaime Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 The first time I was a sponsor, she gave me a car. The second time, I got nothing. The third time, car. Fourth car. Fifth, a pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcePrincessKRS Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I've been sponsor to a few people now and no one has given me anything. And honestly, the only thing I've given any of them was prayers until this last time I realized I have probably been in bad form for all my other sponsees and I bought the girl a framed religious image. So, in conclusion, I agree with Jaime. A car or a pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissScripture Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 It never occurred to me to give my confirmation sponsor anything. Idk if she gave me anything for confirmation. Most likely. I did get a nice crucifix from her, but that was for babysitting her kids for a weekend (in addition to getting paid). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Well, a pony would be a little hard... but she likes ford mustangs, so I could say, "Your present is parked out front, lady!" Gee, I can't think of something goofy and realistic to get her... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmilyAnn Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) Get her a [url="http://carmelitesnottinghill.org.uk/craftynun/#ecwid:category=1414075&mode=category&offset=0&sort=addedTimeDesc"]Crafty Nun[/url]! FaithCecelia's Carmelites make them and they are so darn cute. I don't know if the ship to the US though. What sort of stuff does she like? I know that's a vague question but like interests, hobbies, etc. Slightly unrelated but in my search of the internet I found these [url="http://www.cool2bcatholic.com/holybears.html"]Holy Bears[/url]. I'm seriously just a big kid. [Edited for spelling mistake] Edited January 4, 2012 by EmilyAnn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Hey EmilyAnn, those are great ideas!! She likes all things Catholic and sometimes Jewish... Don't ask... I'm taking a look at these... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Is this the type of pony I am looking for? http://www.flickr.com/photos/fugsly/3429355358/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 What about a picture frame with a picture of the two of you. Family Christian Stores or your local Catholic bookstore probably have something with "I thank my God every time I think of you" or something like that.

Lisa Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 By the way, this is definitely not a lame board topic!! Though, Jaime's response might make it so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Well, I'm kind of looking for a lame gift, Lisa. She's goofy, I'm goofy. I want something bizarre but nice at the same time. Or maybe I should do one bizarre thing, one nice thing. I really like the picture phrame idea... So, a picture phrame and a pony...?
