We are so happy to team up with The Container Store this month and share with you some of the best homemade neighbor gifts!
The last two weeks we have been very busy with The Container Store. Lauren and I were in the Dallas store and Elyse and Camille were in the Salt Lake Store. We had great time sharing our gift ideas. Now if you missed it, don't worry, keep scrolling and we will share everything that we presented!
Growing up I loved coming home to find treats or small gifts on the porch. Now that we've grown up and have families of our own we try and carry on the tradition of fun neighbor treats! The Container Store has made it so much easier to package treats and gifts! Today we want to share with you some of our favorite ways we package gifts!
The first one we are sharing is our Christmas Snickerdoodles. All we did was roll a few cookies in green sprinkles and a few in cinnamon and sugar. They are so easy and make it very festive. This is the snickerdoodle recipe we used.
Plastic Shrink Wrap Bags ($3.99 for 2) – This is my new favorite thing. All you do it put it in the bag, tie the top and then blow dry the bottom of the bag and the shrink wrap will do it's magic! It makes the presentation look SO GOOD!
Growing up we always loved getting presents for our friends. Now that my kids are getting bigger they are wanting to get little presents for their friends. I decided to whip up a batch of cupcakes, stick a little decorative snowflake on top, stick it in a perfect little box and call it good. My daughters were thrilled!
These little boxes are my new favorite. I packaged 34 for all the people I work with in my primary church calling. It might have just been a little gift but it sure looked darling! I filled them with Cookies and Cream Pretzels, and Slow Cooker Cinnamon Almonds.
The Container Store has SO many different kids of Ribbon. You can find them all HERE.
Sometimes I get tired of making treats, so I fill my gifts with things that I bought. These glass jars already have a chalkboard label built right in, making it easy to create a picture-perfect presentation. Just fill and add a bit of ribbon and a fun tag!
If you have never been to The Container Store you NEED to see the inside! It is like a toy store for any woman (and even some men!) ha ha! Have fun prepping for Christmas!
