You all LOVE your neighbors, right?
In all honesty I have lived in my house for 6 years and barely know any of mine.
But this year I really wanted to do something for them...
Something EASY and AFFORDABLE that they could all enjoy.
So here is what I came up with...
Who can't use a little extra gift wrap?
I started by getting some inexpensive wrapping paper from our local Dollar General. I paid about $8.00 for 8 rolls. I also purchased a bag of 40 gift wrap bows for $3.00 and a few packs of present labels ( I purchased 3 packs with 3 sheets of labels in each pack and split them up) You may want to also buy some baggies or favor/treat bags to use to separate everything and attach to the rolls of paper. The whole project cost me around $14 and I was able to make 8 gifts which is a total WIN for me!!!
I knew I wanted to add a sweet little tag to each roll that would be a precious reminder of the true meaning of Christmas... and a cute little pun always helps so here is what I came up with.
"May you be "wrapped up" in the JOY OF THE LORD this holiday season. Merry Christmas"
I printed out my little tags and cut them apart.
(You can grab the FREE PRINTABLE above if you would like.)
Then we all signed the back for a little personal touch.
I used a star shaped hole punch to make a hole for the ribbon and added a little extra for decoration then tied the bag of goodies with the card to each roll of wrapping paper.
I honestly couldn't be more happy with how they turned out!
And my little delivery people had a blast leaving them on every one's doorsteps!
Aren't they the CUTEST delivery people EVER?
I hope my neighbors will really enjoy them!
I think these would make a great gift for neighbors, teachers, bus drivers, or even to hand out as a Random Act of Kindness!
Do you all give gifts to your neighbors?
What do you usually give them?
