I just loved this creative gift idea – that can be used for Christmas, Birthdays, Valentine’s Day, Anniversaries – really pretty much anything!
See how Jessica’s aunt put her creativity to use by sending her this “box of sweets”!
To make it you will need:
• a candy box (reuse one or buy one at a craft store)
• paper candy liners
• money
• glue or double sided tape
• foam stickies
Other ideas:
• College students will think it’s a hoot. Most don’t want to ask for money, but often that is what is most appreciated and needed. This is a little more creative than a gift card.
• Someone heading off on a trip overseas would love to receive some foreign currency, making this a great gift for missionaries, exchange students, parents going to adopt their international children, and other world travelers.
• Kids can learn about denominations they’ve never seen before. My mom and Aunt Cass have given me two dollar bills every year for my entire life. And, yes, they are real US currency.
