I came up with this cute idea just this week. Even though I am no longer teaching, I still enjoy being crafty and giving others free gifts. A friend of mine is moving to a new office so I decided to make a unique gift for her and two others in my office. It's filled with fun office supplies, which you can never go wrong. The great thing about these is you can personalize it to that specific friend or loved one. In this case, they like to travel, so I took some decorative paper and cut it to size... then just curled it inside the jar. And the best part is that it is unique to them. The items inside may be store-bought, but the time you put into it is what counts.

| Here's what's inside. Most everything was found in the dollar shelves. |

| Use washi tape for everything! |

| The jars also make a decorative piece in the house as well |
 |
| And always hand-make your tags or card. Stamp it with their initials and/or something they love |

What a creative idea, Chris. This is something anyone would appreciate, especially someone who works in an office. The rabbit tags are cute, and I like the fact that you can see all the goodies inside the glass jars. There is just nothing like hand made stuff. What a thoughtful gift.
