GIFT GUIDE

TEENAGE GIRL GIFT
Teenage Niece - 
Okay so my niece is about to turn 16.  She is my brother in-laws step daughter and we don't get to spend a lot of time with her.  It's a crap shoot if I'll remember her birthday but this year it's on like Donkey Kong!
Hot gift the new  polaroid camera even hotter the film to go with it (sold out at almost every Target).





Find party stickers and personalize the heck out of her card. 
My children once said the more presents to open the better.  Heed their advice.

Load film on bottom of gift bag to not ruin the surprise of the camera.

Big gift on top tuck Sharpie next to it.

Complete gift; individually wrap camera and boxes of film. Giving more than one box of film is suggested because only 10 shots come in a box.  Include Sharpie pen.  Once wrapped put all packages in a beautiful fun gift bag w/tissue paper.  For now on you can include a box of film with CASH (Cash is King to most) or Gift Card to her favorite haunts.  Now this is the perfect GIFT that keeps on giving.
Don't forget the bow, add something special like plastic bracelets or silly bands.
One awesome teenage girl gift


TODDLER GIFT 


If you're anything like me you might be the last minute shopper perusing the local 
or other large retailer for the perfect gift.  I'm one of four girls and the one with the least amount of children. Also, my children are of the older half.  However, I have the cutest nieces and nephews but what to get them?  They have practically everything and clothes (even though parents love them) are BORING! So during the last visit I took notice of what they all enjoyed playing with.  They generally have the same likes in common.  Often fighting over who gets what.  So why not put together those several items in something they can carry and call their own?  You can even personalize the carrier in their favorite color.  Oh yah, and if you can do it under $15 SCORE!
