We had three of Morgan’s friends and one of Sean’s friends over last night. It was such fun! We enjoyed an early dinner, then visited two different living nativities before coming back to our house for a devotional, gifts and homemade doughnuts.
I made fabric-covered journals for the girls using the Journal Cover Tutorial at Moda Bake Shop for the basic construction.
These go together really quickly, and the girls loved them! I also included a nice pen and some hot cocoa, microwave popcorn and chocolate.
I had a much harder time coming up with a gift for the college-age guys. Some brainstorming for ideas and a few minutes spent roaming around the toy department, though, and here’s what I came up with:
Each one got a travel-size version of a classic board game (perfect for storing in the dorm) along with popcorn, hot cocoa and chocolate.
I’m pretty sure that everyone enjoyed their gifts as much as I enjoyed putting them together for them!
These are great! I just saw this idea on another blog and wish that I had thought of it early enough to make them for my daughter’s teachers before school gets out this week…maybe next year. They look wonderful!
I love your ideas! I’m slowly finding time to sew up your patterns: Aj bottoms(pants) fit my son perfectly and look adorable no matter which fabrics I use
