My girls were lucky yesterday to be gifted an upcycled can of homemade and local goodies, from a friend and local blog reader. In it were some nice ideas I want to share.
I don’t exactly know where the canisters came from, but they are the cardboard variety with a metal rim on the top and bottom, like the ones our protein powder comes in for smoothies. Ms. Patte covered them in scrapbooking paper, cut outs and personalized them perfectly for each of my girls. These are a fabulous alternative to buying gift bags or boxes at the store. Plus they become a gift in themselves.
Among the treats inside this year (she has made these before for my girls) were items also fit for their personalities – locally made felt hair clips, homemade crocheted hats and sunglasses for the my middle child who LOVES sunglasses.
It was all so thoughtful. My girls were touched by your kindness sweet reader. Thank you!
