Here are a couple of gifts that I've given recently. The top gift was a birthday gift for my Auntie T. The bottom two pictures are of a wedding gift given to a friend from high school. My aunt is a big book lover, and one of her favorite stores is Barnes and Noble. I made four bookmarks for her and printed quotes about books on them. I also ran construction paper through my paper shredder to make the fun shreds in the bottom of the basket. The plaid things in the back are houseshoes, and there is also a mystery book, giftcard, peppermint tea, and moisturizing foot socks. For my friend, I already had a Calphalon roasting pan that had been clearanced to $8 at Dillard's. I added to that pan three items from her registry: dish cloths, tea towels, and a Pyrex measuring cup. The dish cloths and tea towels were hard to find, but it paid off since they were on sale. ;) I still wound up spending about $23 total for her gift, but I think it wrapped up nicely. I am gearing up for two upcoming baby gifts and I will post pictures when I am done.
