Cute Little Gifts!


Aren't these little fellows so cute?!!  They make perfect "thinking of you" gifts, stocking stuffer, for the mail person, etc...I made these to go in with a Christmas gift.  One was for a friend and the other with the purple hat is for the girl from our Angel Tree from our church.  Now wondering how I made these???  How about what's in them????  Well let me tell you!  Purchase a jumbo/large candy bar or even a small box of chocolates-my store had the bars buy one get one free, next you will need spa socks/footies OR stretch gloves-the kind you can get at Wal-Mart or the $ Store.  Take white paper and wrap around your candy bar.  Take the sock or glove and put on has a hat, tuck the extra one up in the hat (so they have a matching pair OR you can get two gifts from one pair) stamp a cute little face on, add a sentiment and Oh lala, you have a cute little gift!!  Now wasn't that easy?!!  For the glove hat I tied a ribbon around the fingers of the glove so it looks like the pom pom on a hat and for the sock, I used a safety pin and pinned on the pom pom because I want whom ever I give this to to be able to wear it and if I hot glued the pom pom on it would mess the sock up.  Now if you are't giving the pair  and you are making two from the pair of socks, then you can go ahead and glue the pom pom on.  This certainly wasn't my original idea, I found this idea while blog hopping one day.  Now I bet you are wondering where you get these cute little faces, right?!  Well let me give you the link for them!! They are Peachy Keen faces and they have tons of cute stamps!!!  Go check them out and get yourself a few!  Not that I'm enabling or anything! ;-)  If you have any questions give me a hollar!!  bsl60@embarqmail.com

So cute Brenda! I saw something similar on someone's blog and they used the purse size Kleenex packages. You did a great job!
