last minute...

i have a weird little notebook i keep in my purse.
it's kind of like 'the little black book of my life'.
anything from grocery lists, to notes about what to do tomorrow, to kate's 3 year check up measurements, various phone numbers that aren't labeled so i never remember who they are when i look back...it's all scribbled through this notebook.
i never lose it. can you believe it?
anyway. in it this year, i wrote the gift list.
the list was about the normal length, except with a few extras....principal, secretary, after school care people...the list goes on...
i couldn't figure it out.

i didn't want to do gift cards, i didn't necessarily have the time to craft something from scratch...

i was just at a stand still. every time i thought of it. i heard crickets.
then target came to my rescue.
10 pretty ornaments, in a tube.

5 bucks.

SOLD!
played with a little card stock and some old scrapbook paper and got this...

tacked on a little verse about the true meaning of Christmas and VIOLA!
a little something for Anne to give out.
nothing major. less then a dollar a person.
Cool.
~chat soon!
i do not claim this to be an original idea...i just don't know that i have seen the exact idea anywhere in particular. so if i recreated your idea and didn't cite it. let me know...i'll make sure you get the credit! :)
