I love my friends. I love my friends so much I take time out of my day to write them little notes on Facebook, or drop them a card in the mail...but I probably love making things for my friends most of all! Especially when they're kind enough to buy me a gift, or lend me money, etc.
Jolene was kind enough to buy me a couple shirts from DEB, so I wanted to send her a fun package to say "thank you!".
I made almost everything inside this box, and I was so glad to hear she loved it!
A faux pearl and gemstone headband I got from Seventeen Magazine.
Some AMAZING Organic soap I use when reenacting, found at a local Whole Foods store.
Some Handmade earrings, with small blue gems inside that sparkle.
A handmade fused glass necklace, to remind her of the Ocean she loves so much.
And the best gift in the box, a 3-D dolphin plush I made. This was the first time I had ever tried doing a 3-D plush, so I was really proud of it considering!
Why not take a few minutes out of your day, send a note, fill a small box with goodies, and send it off to a friend who deserves it?
Love and Lightning Bugs,

ReplyDeleteSuch a cute idea! I love the fused glass necklace, but especially the dolphin! I'm just getting back into crafting and this is SUCH a nice and thoughtful idea!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, that's the coolest thing! Not sure if you mailed the box or not, but snail mail is such a lost art that it's always fun to get it anymore. I'm sure your friend loved her box!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a wonderful idea. I know I would feel so special and grateful if one of my friends did that for me. I'm going to have to break out the craft supplies! Do you have a tutorial for the dolphin?
