Are these naff?

[ThePhantomPlopper]

here.

Friends birthday soon and she's been hinting at one of these.

They're not my thing, are they naff though?

I like it but then again I'm tacky. If she wants one that's an easy present for you.

Does she want her own name put on it?

Is it the sort of gift a friend buys? Thought it would be more a DH gift.

Not my cup of tea.... but then its not my birthday If she's hinted about it, then I'd definitely go for the easy option and get it

buy it with the legend 'tacky' then you are pleasing everyone.

mrsm - no idea.

I think it's quite pretty. If she likes it, why not.

I don't know if she was hinting at me or her DH, we were both in the same room.

discuss with her DH

at the end of the day, tacky or not, she wants one

yes but she's worried about it being naff/tacky.

I have no idea if it is or isn't.

oh she is worried about it being naff or tacky...

Oh, erm, not my cuppa but it depends what is engraved tbh

It's too faux-Tiffany for me, but it could be a lot worse.

naff and tacky imo

i dont htink naff

Think it would be her name engraved on it.

her name would swing it to naff for me.

she knows her name. she knows her husband's and dc's names, she knows if she is a mum/sister/daughter etc. Something significant but obscure would be good imo

Meridian has a new pendant thing with Poison Apple on it - it means something to her. for me, I would probably end up with something like Mars.

what about all the lightbulbs in the house engraved on it?

the engraving of one's name is what makes it naff imo

In a word yes. Looks v. cheap.
