To hide these items unless she’s visiting....

[Iggy131313]

I already know the answer to this really, because I either only display these items when my aunt visits, OR I look like the craziest narcissist this side of “I love myself town”.

My aunt is a beautiful and generous woman, and I love her. She buys me lots of thoughtful gifts at Christmas because she loves to do it, and I am grateful. She also loves to spend time making sure her gifts are personal, but MN, OH MN, this year has been spectacular....

I am 40 years old, I live with my DS who is 9. And this year my aunt has gone onto my Facebook, specifically my profile pictures and for Christmas I got the following....

1. A full length canvas print of me posing in a dress.
2. A mug with my face on.
3. A travel mug with my face on.
4. not one, BUT TWO cushions each of a close up OF MY FACE.
5. A FULL CALENDER EACH MONTH WITH A DIFFERENT PICTURE OF MY OWN FACE!

Now, who, IN THEIR RIGHT MIND HAS THEIR OWN FACE ON CUSHIONS! IMAGINE WHAT VISITORS WOULD THINK!

It has made me laugh so much, but was not in any way a joke....ahhhhhh families eh?

Bless her. You are so lucky to have someone who loves you this much.

I love the thought of them being in a charity shop and some other family having cushions with your face on

YANBU

I would be gobsmacked to the point I wouldn’t be able to hide my cringe. I hate getting gifts with my own face on it because it is ALWAYS a picture I would never choose to share much less put it on something.

Google 'Shane Richie wheelie bin' and make sure that's the next thing with your face on !

Thank you so much for this post, it’s made me laugh immoderately.

I say hide the stuff and just bring it out on her visits

This thread has made me laugh so much.

It reminds me of my own lovely but slightly batty SIL, who decided in a very similar fashion that an enormously enlarged photo on canvas of our niece would be the perfect gift for the niece's 18th birthday.

Niece was horrified, especially as she didn't think the photo was flattering at all, but she managed to do a very good job of pretending to love it when presented with it at a family party.

All her cousins, including SIL's children and mine, thought it was absolutely hilarious at the time and still tease her about it occasionally.

This made me laugh so much, bless your lovely auntie.

Re gift to other family members 🤷🏼‍♀️

Oh god 😂😂 keep them out!! People will think you're trying to become a Kardashian.

Hahahaaha

YANBU OP, at all

I love your Aunt hahahaha

This is the best thing I've read :) x

I also love the image of you opening the first one and feigning joy, then the next one, then the next one... as this pile of OP faces presents slowly grows beside you.

That suitcase is AMAZING!

Haven't read all the posts as usual as my eyes can not take the strain.

Will say one thing though, I normally do not like personalised gifts and would not give them but this Xmas I DID! For the lady who has everything and needs nothing I had a wall calendar made (Vistaprint) with photos of her and her grandchildren on each monthly page. She loved it and said she wants one every year from now on.

You see she didn't have everything after all and no one else had thought of this gift for her. I think I am her favourite person just now. Result!

WHEELIE BIN ! Omg

Ah bless her, does she subscribe to emails from My Picture? I get bombarded with offers from them all the time.

) A full length canvas print of me posing in a dress stick in bedroom
2) A mug with my face on. useful for work
3) A travel mug with my face on useful for car
4) two cushions each of a close up of my face regift to your child
5) A FULL CALENDER EACH MONTH WITH A DIFFERENT PICTURE OF MY OWN FACE! I got nothing

I suppose she could have given you photos of herself.

Dh and I are wheezing with laughter here. Bless your aunt!

YANBU but would your aunt like to adopt me? She sounds like a hoot.

I’m thinking of having a couple of these made up with my face for my lovely DiL.

The wheelie bin ! There's a car covered in his face too !

The car, you need to do this op

Didn't mean to post the wheelie bin twice !

Or 3 times !

OP were the cushions matching with the same photo or were they different photos of you?

Definitely not thinking about who to do this for, nope
