Good Morning Bloggers!!
I am super excited to be sharing my
project for today as a Guest Designer over at
project for today as a Guest Designer over at
This week's challenge is
"Christmas Party"perfect challenge to share some Teacher's Gifts I made for my boys to hand out!
My oldest is in middle school so the don't do "Holiday Parties" but he still wanted to give something to
his teachers....all 12 of them...YIKES
So I thought I could make something cute that they could enjoy without breaking breaking the bank..
so I made these wrapped candy treats.

Since they were such a hit with my oldest I decided to make some more for the little one to give to those
"extra teachers"~ aides that come help in his class, the nurse, gym teachers and principle
Look familiar? I made a similar one not too long ago using the same
The Alley Way Stamps...
Snow Much Fun and No Peeking
This time I just changed the paper and color and added a jingle bell using
some Trendy Twine in Christmas Candy Cane

Here are 10 of the 18 I made total.
Each package holds 5 Hershey nugget chocolates that I wrapped in designer paper
from
Jillibean Soup~Christmas Eve Chowder Collection
I made a little tray to hold them on so they would not slip and fall in a bunch in the bag and then taped the candies onto the tray.
The tray itself is very basic....
A piece of Bazzill cardstock cut at 2 1/2 x 5 and scored on the 2 1/2 inch sides 1/2 inch
in on both sides.
The wrapper for the candies measure 1 x 3..... simple simple :)
Well that is all for now...
I hope you have enjoyed my project for today and will play along in this week's
Decorate to Celebrate Challenge
Thanks for stopping by and have a GREAT day!!

Jessica, These are amazing!! I know that the teachers will love these, especially the middle school teachers, they are a lot of the time forgotten about, because the kids are at that age where they don't want to be "embarrassed"!! Great job!! Karen♥
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute and perfect gift for the teachers I think. Love the papers you used on them too.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!!!! I love the wrapped chocolates in a box with the cute snowman tags! Congrats on the guest designer spot too!
