Last Minute Gift!
Simple and Easy? CHECK.
Inexpensive and Fun? CHECK.
Kid-friendly? CHECK.
I've done gift mixes in the past and always enjoy giving them. The recipient even loves them too! I prepared these the other day within minutes. I happened to have the extra jars to swing it and used those this time. In the past I've even sewn up some super-beginner type gift bags for each mix in inexpensive Christmas fabric or scrap fabric I had at home. Be creative!
All finished up, including the tags with instructions:
Would you like to give it a try? Here are the recipes I used:
Apple Crisp Mix
Cinnamon Pancake Mix
M&M Cookie Mix
Friendship Brownie Mix
I found a whole sleigh full of jar mix recipes at Recipe Goldmine that would be fun to try!
So cute! Being a displaced South Louisianian living a new life Arkansas, I gave all my neighbors and friends at church RAW CANE SUGAR! Taken right from the sugarmill on our last trip home for Thanksgiving. I placed them in mason jars with cute material and added recipes that utilize cane sugar. Simple, cheap, easy, and appreciated!
ReplyDeleteWonderful recipe suggestions!!! I really liked the comment that Lauren left. That was unique, too, and very thoughtful.
