Love your quilts! I'm looking for an inexpensive but fun, thoughtful gift for my kids teachers and babysitter. Any ideas?
Hi Annie,
If you want to make something, do you have a favorite cookie recipe you and your kids can make?
Take photos of the kids making the cookies, then use the photo as a gift tag which includes the cookie recipe and everyone's hand-signed names.
Package the cookies in a basked lined with a nice cotton napkin you can make by binding the edges of a square piece of cotton.
Repurposed tins, lined with wax paper, also make nice cookie containers, especially if you want to make cookies ahead of time and keep them fresh. I sometimes put the cookies in a plastic bag inside the tins.
One dozen cookies per person is a nice amount; most recipes will make between 3-4 dozen cookies.
If you don't have time to make something, our glass blown ladybug ornaments (photo) have
been popular, inexpensive gifts.
One of our friends, who is a devoted gardener, gives these every year and uses hers as the tree topper!
