Pool Party

Yesterday the family attended a pool/8th grade graduation party(Yes around here we celebrate going into high school). So what to bring as a small gift??? This is what I came up with. Sophi my 11 year old help me pick out the stuffing....check it out.
So I started with this...
The container was from Targets snack mix my hubby received for Father's Day. I wanted to use this as the gift wrapping too, so we cover the middle with scrapbook paper.

When I got to the point of sticking it to the jar I realized my girls used all my double sided tape, so.... I found a sheet of double sided tape stuff and cut it into strips. This is how I applied it to the jar.

Then cut I cut a paper towel tube the same height as the jar. Held it in the center, filled the jar around it with the treasures from the Dollar Tree, and last stuck some cash in the tube.

The lid was attached, tag was punched out from the same scrapbook paper we used to cover it, then tied on with a ribbon and SUCCESS!

She loved it!

Happy 24-7
