End of year pressies!

Sorry it's been so long folks! End of the year seems to be a hectic time, but now I can get a bit of a break to sort things out. I'll be moving house in a few days, out of my parents house and in with some friends. Looking forward to it but it's a little scary :S :D


Anyway, I wanted to show you what I made for the kids for the end of year presents. I attempted the crayon shapes and completely failed so will be trying and perfecting them for next year instead.


Below you can see my production process. Each child got:
- 1 plastic cup
- 1 plastic straw
- 1 crayon
- 1 melody pop
- 1 toffee fudge
- 1 owl (more on this shortly)
- 1 personal note
- 1 wordsearch with everyone's names included in it




After I put them all together, I wrapped them in cellophane and tied them up with a bit of blue or pink embroidery thread.



I made sure the names on their personal notes (cut out on my Silhouette Cameo) were showing along the outside so each child got the right cup. The kids loved them!!! Definitely going to have to repeat this next year, it was very cheap and easy to do! And hopefully I'll have managed to make some crayon shapes for them by then too!

Blue skies everyone :)
