Christmas Pop Bottle Gift Set

Alright, my friends. This next post is a re-post of mine. The pictures from the first one make me cringe so I decided to make it again and re-take pictures. Yes, I’m little OCD, and what can I say? I like pretty pictures!!
This next Gift Idea is perfect for anyone who has a sweet tooth (like me!!)
The kids can even join in on the fun making this gift by putting all the candies in the pop bottles (my kids loved it!) We decided to give this Christmas Pop Bottle Gift Set to some friends who were travelling home for the holidays so they’d have goodies to munch on. And if you have friends or neighbors who aren’t travelling, I think anyone would love to receive this!

Here is how you can make it…

SUPPLIES:

– Empty Crush or IBC Cream Soda Pop Bottle Set
– Paint
– Hot Glue
– Printables (available below)
– Metal rings
– Ribbon or twine
– Washi tape (if you want to add it to your box)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Begin by washing out each pop bottle and letting dry completely. I usually let mine dry for a day or two.

2. Fill your bottles with Christmas (or Christmas-colored) treats.

3. Save and print the Pop Bottle Printables by going to this LINK. Print and cut out labels.

4. Add scrapbook paper to each pop bottle. I cut mine to be about 3 inches x 9 inches. Hot glue around and add the printable to the middle front.

5. Paint (I spray painted) your box the color you want it. Let dry. Embellish it if desired (I used a little Washi Tape).

6. Add your main printable image to the front center of your box with hot glue.

7. Add your circle printables to the tops of your bottle lids using hot glue.

8. Add your circle word prints to metal rings. Tie this around the tops of the bottles using twine or ribbon.
Place your bottles in your box, and you’re done!!
Now you have a super cute, goodie-filled gift to give to anyone.

Christmas Gift Idea

Today I have a super cute and super easy friend and neighbor gift for you.
After making my Christmas Goodies Jar, I came across similar canisters in the dollar section at Target. Score!! I bought several and knew they would be put to good use.
Instead of baked goodies, I thought it would be perfect with some store bought candies, and have some DELICIOUS Lindt Lindor Truffles on hand that matched perfectly, I knew they would be the perfect treat to go inside!
Here is how it turned out:

Simple and sweet, right?
Here is how you do it…

SUPPLIES:

– Canister (found in the dollar section at Target or found at Joann’s or Michael’s)
– Lindt Lindor Truffles or other yummy treats
– Christmas Tag (available below)
– Tape, glue or washi tape

DIRECTIONS:

1. Fill your jar with your goodies. {EASY!}

2. Print and SAVE Christmas and New Years Tag by clicking on the image above, then RIGHT-CLICK and SAVE. Open it up in a program like Word and re-size it to what you need.

3. Add your tag to your canister by gluing or taping on.
Voila.

Cute, easy and quick!

Merry & Magical Christmas Gift Ideas

Not sure about you, but once the holidays hit I’m always looking for a fun and easy gift to hand out to my friends and neighbors. After seeing the new White Chocolate Peppermint M&Ms at the store, I knew just what to do!!
I wanted to make a Christmas M&M Gift Jar with a cute tag making the M&M stand for Merry & Magical!!
Here is how Gift Idea #3 for under $10 turned out:

SUPPLIES:

– Jar (found mine at Hobby Lobby for 50% off)
– M&Ms (I used White Chocolate Peppermint – found at Target)
– Merry & Magical Printable
– Tape or Glue
– Twine or Ribbon
– Tag

DIRECTIONS:



 1. Begin by gathering your supplies and emptying your M&Ms in your jar. I used White Chocolate Peppermint M&Ms but you could use any holiday M&Ms.


2. Download and Print the tag by clicking on the image above, and then right-clicking and saving. Insert it into a Document and re-size it to the size you need. Print and cut out. Add to the top of your jar with glue dots, hot glue or tape.

3. Add a tag and twine or ribbon to the top of your jar, and you’re done!!
Told you it was easy!!

This gift was easy and turned out pretty darn cute!! Can’t wait to make these for some of our neighbors!
Here is how you can make this Easy Cookie Gift Idea too:

SUPPLIES:

– Can or Canister (got mine at Joann’s for a few dollars using my coupon)
– Cookies or Treat
– Baked with Love Printable
– Tape, Glue or Washi Tape
DIRECTIONS:

1. Bake your treats, let them set. Grab your canister and put your goodies in it. I put in the White Chocolate Peppermint M&M Cookies that I posted yesterday since they were festive and matched. ;)

 
2. Save your printable by clicking on the image above, right-clicking and saving. Open it up in a program like Word and re-size it to the size you want it. Print and cut out. I made this printable using an awesome tutorial from Kellie of Nest of Posies on Chalkboard Art. I’ve already used the tut several times. It is so helpful and fun. I LOVE it!!

3. Attach your print to your canister with glue, tape or washi tape. I had this fun polka dot washi tape and used that. :)
Add your lid and Voila – you’re done!!


Pretty quick, easy and simple, right?!
I’ve said this a gazillion times before, but I’m all about the quick, easy but CUTE gifts.
