This is wonderful! I would have oohed and aahed if I received this as a gift. Maybe your co-workers are unappreciative in general? Don't let it get you down -- it is truly a thoughtful gift.

JP,
They are adorable, and I would have loved to have received one!
You go girl! I would get that massage and pedicure next time as well. I used to work in an office like that--now I work from home. Less social time, but hey that's what my SCS buddies are for--besides I know you ladies like the same things I do.
Like somebody else said above, it is the thought that counts! You put a lot of thought and time into those adorable gifts. If nobody else noticed, God definitely noticed your good deed, and he is smiling!

These are adorable. And sometimes we don't know it, but people will not say anything about our stuff to us, but will gush about it to other people. It stinks, I LOVE cheerleaders! =) But you can be proud of the fact that any of us would LOVE to have received your awesome gifts!
I love them! I was thinking about doing something like it and didn't have the time to put it together. Next year I will start sooner! Sorry your co-workers didn't take the time to say "thanks!" I know they had to appreciate them.

These are adorable! What a generous spirit you have. I, too, have had the same experience with co-workers and have learned which ones truly appreciate what you do for them. It amazes me that there are those who don't even acknowledge your thoughtfulness.
