A Merry Little Christmas to you


I wanted to put together a little somethin'-somethin' as a stocking stuffer or even a Christmas rush stress reliever for the ladies. These little toiletry bags were fast and fun to make. The idea is not my own. Mary H. over at the Stamp Shack made these last year for her craft sale table and shared her idea. Thanks Mary! These will really come in handy for small gifts and stocking stuffers.


I just took a little trip to the dollar store and found bath scrubbies, votive candles, small tubes of body wash and nail files to fill the little bag. You could also do something like this with chocolates, tea, nuts or any type of edible treat.

The cello bags I found at Michaels in the baking/crafts section. For the topper I just used some holiday greeting stamps, bright colored inks, a piece of ribbon and of course I had to add a little Stickles to the holly berries for sparkle.

Voila! A quick and easy "thinking of you" gift.


Are you starting to get into the holiday spirit?

Until next time....

Jennifer
