Welcome to the Bank of Mum and Dad!
Let’s face it — if your financial safety net comes with roast dinners and passive-aggressive texts, you might be a customer of the world’s most emotionally complex institution: The Bank of Mum and Dad. No PIN required, just a guilt trip and maybe a reminder that “back in their day” a house cost a tenner and came with a free lawnmower.
This Crafty Project is a tongue-in-cheek tribute to family finances, IOUs written on napkins, and every parent who’s ever “just helped out this once” (again). Whether you’re the borrower, the lender, or the innocent bystander, it’s time to track it, laugh at it, and maybe even get a proper repayment plan going.
📝 To Do List
(Mock version — we’ll polish this list down the line.)
- Create your own ‘Loan Agreement’ with maximum drama.
- Design a cheesy logo for your personal “family bank”.
- Write out every family loan you’ve ever taken (yes, even that fiver in 2009).
- Make a repayment plan — with snacks as currency.
- Record a fake TV advert for “Bank of Mum and Dad: No Credit Score? No Problem.”
- Print a novelty cheque for something silly.
- Craft a “Sorry I’m Skint Again” greeting card.
- Create a ‘Debt Tracker’ using colourful stickers.
- Make a reward chart for prompt repayments (like you’re six again).
- Send your mum a fake invoice for emotional labour — and see what happens.
