We give out a lot of gift cards- I enjoy making the gift more personalized and having the monkeys get involved with making gifts.
We purchased mugs, hot cocoa, and candy canes.
We then made non denominational ornaments and wrapped up little gift packages with a gift card tucked inside each mug.
We then glue gunned a piece of ribbon to the base and called it an ornament.
I don't believe in cellophane- if you have any ideas for clear wrap that is better for the environment- please let me know.
For the sake of identifying what gift card was in the gift and to keep production lines moving on our dinning table I opted to use the clear wrap.
I would love to get a gift like this- Wouldn't you?
In case you wanted to see the cutest dog in the world:
here is my Spike with his holiday cut and some bells to prove it!

cute dog! yes, i would be pretty darn happy with that gift! :)
Fantastic idea! I would love to get one :-)
What gorgeous gifts-and Spike looks adorable!
The dog is a cutie and your kids (and you) are very talented. That does add a festive theme to an otherwise ordinary gift card. Although, gift cards for food are my favorite. Any dressing up would be pure bonus!
Your boys are going to grow up being very creative! And yes that is the cutest dog in the world!
Green pine cones!! Fab!
