But after a while it seemed like I was overwhelmed every year and the giving was getting in the way of selling. It was becoming too much work to manage. Now I encourage people to buy my art for gifts if I know that the person they are buying for will like it, but, I no longer give it away unless it is for someone very special. <br /><br />I buy art for Christmas only when I know it is something the person receiving it will love. Art is very personal. I tend to buy mostly craft or artisan jewelry.<br /><br />I have, however, received art for Christmas most of the last few years because I am very vocal about what I like and it makes it easy for my husband!
