<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The holiday season is upon us, and what better way to spread joy and warmth than by gifting your friends and neighbors a touch of Christmas magic for their homes? I shared the Hygge gift boxes I am taking around to my friends and neighbors on December 1st, and I had so many questions about how to make the DIY Potpourri Jars I included in the boxes. So here&#8217;s a little tutorial. these DIY Holiday Potpourri Jars are not only easy to make but also a delightful present that will have everyone talking about the wonderful scents wafting through their homes.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>How to Dry Citrus Slices:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="1000" height="1333" data-pin-title="how to dry citrus slices " data-pin-description="DIY Holiday Potpourri Jars: A Festive Gift for Friends and Neighbors.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Before we dive into creating these charming jars, let&#8217;s start with the heart of the potpourri—the dried orange and lemon slices. This step adds a personal touch to your gift and infuses the potpourri with a burst of citrusy goodness.</p>

<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Slice Citrus:</strong> Begin by cutting 5-6 slices each of oranges and lemons. Aim for uniform thickness to ensure even drying.</li>



<li><strong>Preheat Oven:</strong> Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C).</li>



<li><strong>Arrange on a Tray:</strong> Place the citrus slices on a parchment-lined baking tray, ensuring they are not touching each other. This allows for proper air circulation.</li>



<li><strong>Slow and Low:</strong> Dry the slices in the preheated oven for 2-3 hours, turning them halfway through. The slow and low method helps preserve the vibrant colors and essential oils.</li>



<li><strong>Check for Dryness:</strong> The slices are ready when they are mostly dry but still a bit flexible. Remember, they will continue to dry as they cool.</li>
</ol>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Storage Tips:</strong></h4>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you plan to distribute the jars closer to December 1st, consider drying the cranberries and storing the jars in the fridge for a few days. However, remind your friends and family to use the potpourri within a week for the best fragrance experience.</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>How to Use the Holiday Potpourri:</strong></h4>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When your friends and neighbors are ready to transform their homes into a Christmas haven, instruct them to pour the jar&#8217;s contents into a pot, cover everything with water, and simmer on low heat. The result? A magical aroma that will evoke the spirit of Christmas and create lasting memories.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What is Hygge?</h3>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Hygge (pronounced hoo-ga) is a Danish concept that encompasses a feeling of coziness, contentment, and well-being. It&#8217;s about creating a warm atmosphere and enjoying the simple pleasures of life. This year, I&#8217;ve curated Hygge Holiday Gift Boxes for my friends, neighbors, and even my adult kids to spread the spirit of hygge. On december 1st I&#8217;ll be delivering hygee boxes to my friends and neighbor so they can enjoy them all month long!</p>

<p><strong>Candy Coal Recipe:</strong><br />
(you will need parchment paper and a candy thermometer for this recipe)</p>
<p>Ingredients-</p>
<ul>
<li>1/2 cup Light Corn Syrup</li>
<li>2 cups Granulated Sugar</li>
<li>Water</li>
<li>Black Food Coloring (optional)</li>
<li>1/2 teaspoon Flavor Extract (optional)</li>
</ul>
<p>Directions-</p>
<ul>
<li>Combine corn syrup, water and sugar in a medium saucepan on medium/high heat.</li>
<li>Use a candy thermometer and boil mixture until the temperature reaches hard crack (305 degrees).</li>
<li>Once it reaches 305 degrees immediately remove the candy from the burner and stir in food coloring and flavor extract.</li>
<li>Immediately pour into a parchment paper lined 9&#215;9 pan. Work quickly as the candy will start to harden right away.</li>
<li>Allow the candy to cool and harden. Once the candy has completely cooled gently tap with a meat tenderizer to break into candy size pieces.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can dust the candy with a bit of confectioners sugar to keep it from sticking to one another and store in an airtight container.</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yiptgrMBP3Q/Vjf-TS4cuvI/AAAAAAAA-eQ/-kA5RqcMHWs/s1600/DSC_5049.png"><img decoding="async" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yiptgrMBP3Q/Vjf-TS4cuvI/AAAAAAAA-eQ/-kA5RqcMHWs/s1600/DSC_5049.png" alt="" border="0" /></a></div>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi TT&amp;J Readers! I&#8217;m Stephanie from <a href="http://www.somewhatsimple.com" target="_blank">Somewhat Simple</a> and I&#8217;m thrilled to be here today! If you&#8217;re still looking for a simple, thoughtful gift for a friend, this one is for you!</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-35082" src="http://www.somewhatsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/magazine_gift_for_a_friend.png" alt="magazine_gift_for_a_friend" width="700" height="1000" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I have a good friend who happens to be a big-time magazine lover. One year for her birthday, I bought her a big stack of magazines, but I wanted to deliver the gift in a personal and thoughtful way. That is when I thought of the perfect idea!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You know those Candy Bar Posters that use the names of candy bars in sentences to create a card-like gift for a friend or loved one?</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: center;">&#8220;Hi <strong>SWEETHEART</strong>. You are such a <strong>BIG HUNK</strong>. Thanks for being my <strong>LIFESAVER</strong>&#8220;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">&#8230;. we&#8217;ve all seen these, right?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I decided to use this same concept, but instead of candy bars, I&#8217;d write a note to my friend using magazine titles- perfect!!!</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-66489 aligncenter" src="https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello12.jpg" alt="happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello1" width="300" height="300" srcset="https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello12.jpg 300w, https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello12-150x150.jpg 150w, https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello12-90x90.jpg 90w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /><br />
<span id="more-66010"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This simple gift idea for a friend is easy to throw together and would be a good present for any holiday, any friend and would fit any budget! Here is what I did:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.somewhatsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/magazine_gift_for_a_friend_1.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-35083" src="http://www.somewhatsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/magazine_gift_for_a_friend_1.png" alt="magazine_gift_for_a_friend_1" width="700" height="450" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>First,</strong> I grabbed about 10 magazines that I knew my friend would love to read.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Next</strong>, I wrote a thoughtful letter with her in-mind. I mentioned favorite memories I had of the 2 of us together, things I love about her etc. I added titles to magazines where they fit.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Here are some of the things I said in the letter, (most of the personal stuff has been taken out to protect our dignity- ha ha!) but this should give you an idea of how you could re-create this for someone you love:</p>
<blockquote><p>It seems like just yesterday we were <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>SEVENTEEN</strong></span> and the two of <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">US</span> </strong>were hanging out all the <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>TIME</strong></span> and becoming great friends! Let’s <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>TRAVEL</strong> </span>down memory lane, shall we?</p>
<p>Remember our trip to the lake in the summer of ’97? <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>LIVING</strong></span> on a houseboat for a week with a clogged toilet was awesome! That was my first (and only) time water-skiing. Swallowing half the lake and getting the biggest wedgie of my <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>LIFE </strong></span>was not the <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>HIGHLIGHT</strong> </span>of the trip for me!</p>
<p>Girl’s Camp that summer was <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>OK!</strong></span> I’m not a huge fan of Girl’s Camp nor do I like living in scenes straight out of <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC</strong></span> but I have good memories of the time we spent together- and I think I could still perform the dance we made up for skit night.</p>
<p>Now that we are <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>PARENTS, </strong></span>we have entered a <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>NEW ERA </strong></span>in life that isn’t always full of <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">GLAMOUR</span>. </strong>But I am grateful that we are in this journey of motherhood together and I appreciate you more and more <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">EVERYDAY</span>.</strong></p>
<p>I could go on and on about memories and things I love about being your <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">FRIEND</span>, </strong>but I’ll keep it short and <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">REAL SIMPLE</span>: </strong>I’m grateful for <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>ALL YOU </strong></span>have ever done for me- the laughs, the support, the phone calls and the advice. These are things I wouldn’t trade for all the <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>MONEY</strong></span> in the world! You’re the kind of person <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>PEOPLE</strong></span> love to be around and I feel <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>FORTUNE</strong></span>(ate) to call you my best friend. Even though our <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>HOMES &amp; GARDENS </strong></span>are states apart, I thank my lucky <span style="color: #99cc00;"><strong>STAR</strong></span>s we have been able to stay <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">IN TOUCH</span>. </strong>I’m glad you decided to marry Mike and not <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">RANGER RICK</span> </strong>so the 2 of us can run in the same <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">FAMILY CIRCLE</span>. </strong>I love your guts and hope that at age 33 you still feel <strong><span style="color: #99cc00;">YOUNG AND MODERN</span>.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>(I didn&#8217;t include every magazine I mentioned in the stack that I gave her- that would have been expensive and would take me forever to find all those titles!)</em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.somewhatsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/magazine_gift_for_a_friend_2.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-35084" src="http://www.somewhatsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/magazine_gift_for_a_friend_2.png" alt="magazine_gift_for_a_friend_2" width="700" height="450" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Lastly</strong>, I placed the letter on top of the stack of magazines and tied it up with some ribbon. That&#8217;s it!!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Unless my friend is a good actress, (which is possible &#8217;cause she is good at pretty much everything!) this gift was a great success! She definitely seemed to love it, and the smile on her face as she read the letter was pretty fantastic.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.somewhatsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/magazine_gift_for_a_friend_3.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-35085" src="http://www.somewhatsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/magazine_gift_for_a_friend_3.png" alt="magazine_gift_for_a_friend_3" width="700" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>Thanks for having me today, Jen!</p>

<p><span id="more-66735"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Here&#8217;s what you need to make your own Christmas Light Treat Boxes!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Cricut cutting machine</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Cardstock</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Glue</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Washi tape</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Christmas candy</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I used my Cricut Explore to cut these light boxes out. The scoring pen worked great to create the scored lines used to assemble the treat box. I used image <span style="color: #333333;">#M4284D from the Tags Bags Boxes and More 2 cartridge.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9732" src="http://www.createcraftlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/christmas-light-boxes-1.jpg" alt="Christmas Light Treat Boxes from createcraftlove.com for Tatertots &amp; Jello!" width="700" height="467" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Once the image is cut, you will want to fold along the scored lines.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9733" src="http://www.createcraftlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/christmas-light-boxes-3.jpg" alt="Christmas Light Treat Boxes from createcraftlove.com for Tatertots &amp; Jello!" width="700" height="467" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Glue the bottom part of the light together first.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9734" src="http://www.createcraftlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/christmas-light-boxes-4.jpg" alt="Christmas Light Treat Boxes from createcraftlove.com for Tatertots &amp; Jello!" width="700" height="467" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">This creates a cone. Fill with the Christmas candy of your choosing. I used Holiday M&amp;Ms.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9735" src="http://www.createcraftlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/christmas-light-boxes-5.jpg" alt="Christmas Light Treat Boxes from createcraftlove.com for Tatertots &amp; Jello!" width="700" height="467" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Then glue the upper part of the light box together.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9736" src="http://www.createcraftlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/christmas-light-boxes-6.jpg" alt="Christmas Light Treat Boxes from createcraftlove.com for Tatertots &amp; Jello!" width="700" height="467" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Once it is glued shut, wrap the top of the &#8220;light&#8221; with silver washi tape to give it an authentic look.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9737" src="http://www.createcraftlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/christmas-light-boxes-7.jpg" alt="Christmas Light Treat Boxes from createcraftlove.com for Tatertots &amp; Jello!" width="700" height="467" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">That&#8217;s it! Super easy and super cute!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9738" src="http://www.createcraftlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/christmas-light-boxes-single.jpg" alt="Christmas Light Treat Boxes from createcraftlove.com for Tatertots &amp; Jello!" width="600" height="900" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Fits easily in stockings or can be tied and used as a gift tag!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey there! I&#8217;m Talitha and I blog over at <a href="http://www.lovepomegranatehouse.com/" target="_blank">Love, Pomegranate House</a>! Christmas is my favorite holiday! I love all the movies, music, and lights. Oh and let&#8217;s not forget the treats. The food may be the best part of the season. I mean, yes, family and closeness and blah blah blah. But treats. I am thrilled to be here today sharing an awesome recipe for these adorable Cream Cheese Mints. It is perfect for the holidays, either to hoard and eat at home or to share with neighbors and friends.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5693" src="http://www.lovepomegranatehouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/DSC_0018-JPG.jpg" alt="Cream Cheese Mints" width="650" height="432" /></p>
<p>Lucky for all of us, this recipe makes <em>plenty</em> (about 250 mints) so you have enough to give away and still have some left over to eat yourself&#8230; while hiding in a closet so no one knows how many you ate.</p>
<p><strong>Ingredients</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>1 (8oz) brick of cream cheese; room temperature</li>
<li>2 tbsp butter; room temperature</li>
<li>1 tsp peppermint extract</li>
<li>4 1/2 &#8211; 5 cups powdered sugar</li>
<li>food coloring</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5691" src="http://www.lovepomegranatehouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/DSC_0002-JPG.jpg" alt="Cream Cheese Mints" width="550" height="827" /></p>

<span id="more-66688"></span></p>
<p><strong>Directions</strong>:</p>
<ol>
<li>Line a large baking sheet with wax paper. (<em>Do as I say, not as I did&#8230; my bad.</em>) Set aside.</li>
<li>Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer, combine cream cheese and butter. Once well combined, add in peppermint extract.</li>
<li>Slowly add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until thick. The mixture should be stiff enough to hold a peak and not wilt when the mixer is off. This is normally in the 4 1/2 to 5 cups of powdered sugar range.</li>
<li>Add food coloring to cream cheese mixture until desired color is reached. If doing multiple colors, divide cream cheese and then dye. (<em>My mints required 1 drop of red and 3 drops of green.</em>)</li>
<li>Put cream cheese mixture into a piping bag fitted with a medium star tip and drop nickel sized amounts on lined baking sheet. (To make the &#8220;kiss&#8221; shape, hold tip 1/2-inch above the baking sheet, squeeze bag until circumference is about that of a nickel, and then pull up quickly.)</li>
<li>Place tray in freezer for 2 hours to allow the mints to firm up. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.</li>
</ol>

<div class="ERSummary summary">Here is an awesome recipe for these adorable Cream Cheese Mints. It is perfect for the holidays, either to hoard and eat at home or to share with neighbors and friends.</div>
<div class="ERIngredients">
<div class="ERIngredientsHeader">Ingredients</div>
<ul class="ingredients">
<li class="ingredient">1 (8oz) brick of cream cheese; room temperature</li>
<li class="ingredient">2 tbsp butter; room temperature</li>
<li class="ingredient">1 tsp peppermint extract</li>
<li class="ingredient">4 1/2 – 5 cups powdered sugar</li>
<li class="ingredient">food coloring</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="ERInstructions">
<div class="ERInstructionsHeader">Instructions</div>
<div class="instructions">
<ol>
<li class="instruction">Line a large baking sheet with wax paper. (Do as I say, not as I did… my bad.) Set aside.</li>
<li class="instruction">Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer, combine cream cheese and butter. Once well combined, add in peppermint extract.</li>
<li class="instruction">Slowly add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until thick. The mixture should be stiff enough to hold a peak and not wilt when the mixer is off. This is normally in the 4 1/2 to 5 cups of powdered sugar range.</li>
<li class="instruction">Add food coloring to cream cheese mixture until desired color is reached. If doing multiple colors, divide cream cheese and then dye. (My mints required 1 drop of red and 3 drops of green.)</li>
<li class="instruction">Put cream cheese mixture into a piping bag fitted with a medium star tip and drop nickel sized amounts on lined baking sheet. (To make the “kiss” shape, hold tip 1/2-inch above the baking sheet, squeeze bag until circumference is about that of a nickel, and then pull up quickly.)</li>
<li class="instruction">Place tray in freezer for 2 hours to allow the mints to firm up. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.</li>
</ol>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here we go! The holidays are here and before you know it, you&#8217;ll be elbow deep in wrapping paper, bows and tags!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m always looking for fun ways to wrap small gifts, whether they&#8217;re for neighbors, my husbands staff or even the paper guy.</p>
<p>These <em><strong>DIY Stamped Holiday Burlap Bags</strong></em> were so easy and I think you&#8217;re going to LOVE them!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>DIY Stamped Holiday Burlap Gift Bags</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-66557" src="https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/2DIY-Stamped-Holiday-Gift-Bags-TodaysCreativeblog.net_.jpg" alt="2DIY-Stamped-Holiday-Gift-Bags-TodaysCreativeblog.net_" width="600" height="857" srcset="https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/2DIY-Stamped-Holiday-Gift-Bags-TodaysCreativeblog.net_.jpg 600w, https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/2DIY-Stamped-Holiday-Gift-Bags-TodaysCreativeblog.net_-105x150.jpg 105w, https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/2DIY-Stamped-Holiday-Gift-Bags-TodaysCreativeblog.net_-210x300.jpg 210w, https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/2DIY-Stamped-Holiday-Gift-Bags-TodaysCreativeblog.net_-300x428.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></p>
<p>Of course the bags alone with a festive ribbon are perfect all on their own, but if you&#8217;re a DIY kind of person like myself, I just can&#8217;t leave things alone. I just have to put my own stamp on it&#8230;&#8230; no pun intended.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-29818 size-full" src="http://todayscreativeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Holiday-Gift-Bags-TodaysCreativeBlog.net_1.jpg" alt="DIY Stamped Holiday Burlap Bags | TodaysCreativeBlog.net" width="600" height="536" /></p>
<p>I&#8217;m Kim from <a href="http://todayscreativeblog.net" target="_blank"><strong>Today&#8217;s Creative Blog</strong> </a>and<strong> <a href="http://inspirationdiy.com">InspirationDIY,</a></strong> where I share all the things you love. <a href="http://todayscreativeblog.net/decorating/" target="_blank">Home Decor,</a> DIY, <a href="http://todayscreativeblog.net/crafts-2/" target="_blank">Crafting</a>, <a href="http://todayscreativeblog.net/crafts-2/printables/" target="_blank">Free Printables </a>and <a href="http://todayscreativeblog.net/in-the-kitchen/" target="_blank">Recipes</a>.

<span id="more-66486"></span><br />
I found my burlap bags online, but you may be able to find them at your local craft store or at least something comparable. Small cotton bags work well too.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-29741" src="http://todayscreativeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Easy-Gift-Wrapping-TodaysCreativeBlog.net_.jpg" alt="Easy Gift Wrapping TodaysCreativeBlog.net" width="600" height="428" /></p>
<p><strong>Supply List:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Burlap or Cotton Bags</li>
<li>Holiday Theme Foam Stamps</li>
<li>Foam Paint Brush</li>
<li>Acrylic Paints</li>
<li>Twine</li>
<li>Printable Holiday Gift Tags (found on <a href="http://todayscreativeblog.net/printable-holiday-gift-tags/" target="_blank">Today&#8217;s Creative Blog</a>)</li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-29821" src="http://todayscreativeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/stamped-burlap-bags-TodaysCreativeBlog.net_1.jpg" alt="stamped burlap bags  TodaysCreativeBlog.net" width="600" height="200" /></p>
<ol>
<li>I placed a piece of cardstock inside my bag, just in case the paint bled through.</li>
<li>Coat your stamp with the paint</li>
<li>Position it and press onto your bag. If needed, take a small paint brush and fill in any area that doesn&#8217;t look well coated.</li>
<li>Tie bakers twine (any ribbon works) along with a holiday gift tag</li>
</ol>
<p>This craft was so easy and quick. It was dry in about 10 minutes. Total craft time was less than 30 minutes.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-29822" src="http://todayscreativeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/STamped-Burlap-Bags-2-TodaysCreativeBlog.net_.jpg" alt="STamped Burlap Bags 2 TodaysCreativeBlog.net" width="600" height="526" /> Now that&#8217;s my kind of crafting and wrapping!</p>

<p>There are so many things you could wrap inside these adorable festive bags. Use them in stockings, gift cards, gumballs, candy, nail polish, etc&#8230; Anything small you have will look much more impressive in a cute bag. Right?</p>
<p>I love that these can be reused over and over.</p>

This time of year, it&#8217;s super-smart to have a small stash of quick gifts on hand. Pull them out at a moment&#8217;s notice &#8212; like when your neighbor drops by with cookies, or when your daughter decides she needs gifts for her pals a tschool&#8230; as she&#8217;s packing up her backpack. Having a gift ready to grab will be a total <strong>#SupermomMoment</strong>!</p>

<p>Today we&#8217;re sharing a free printable template to turn bottles of nail polish into a thoughtful but super-easy gift that women from tweens to adults will like. Make up a bunch to be ready when you need them.</p>

Thought we&#8217;d also mention that this project coordinates with our <a title="Winter Wonderland Free Printable Phrases" href="http://pagingsupermom.com/2013/12/free-white-christmas-printables-for-glitter-academy/" target="_blank">Winter Wonderland free printable phrases</a>. If you&#8217;re looking for a more substantial gift, print and frame them to give with the nail polish. Are you hosting a holiday gathering? You could decorate with the phrases and give the nail polish as party favors.</p>

<p><strong>TO MAKE:</strong> Download our free <a href="http://pagingsupermom.com/?attachment_id=8662" target="_blank">Nail Polish Christmas Gift Tag template</a> and print on cardstock. Cut out each tag and use a craft knife to cut out the inner circle. Slip over the lid of the nail polish bottle. If desired, tie on a couple bells, using twine or ribbon, to make your gift even more festive.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi there! I&#8217;m so excited to participate in Jen&#8217;s holiday guest series. My name is Heidi and I blog at <a href="http://www.honeybearlane.com">Honeybear Lane</a>. I love to DIY pretty much everything&#8211;crafts, home decor, sewing, cooking, whatever! We are building a new house so pretty soon I&#8217;ll have a lot more projects&#8230;I&#8217;m super excited!</p>
<p>Today I&#8217;m sharing a 5-minute neighbor gift idea. It&#8217;s hot chocolate in a mug and this seriously couldn&#8217;t be easier!<br />
<a href="http://s245.photobucket.com/user/h2orem/media/5minutehotchocolategift_zps907db258.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter" src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg43/h2orem/5minutehotchocolategift_zps907db258.jpg" alt=" photo 5minutehotchocolategift_zps907db258.jpg" width="578" height="950" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-65611 aligncenter" src="https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello1.jpg" alt="happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello" width="300" height="300" srcset="https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello1.jpg 300w, https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello1-150x150.jpg 150w, https://tatertotsandjello.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/happy-holidays-2014-300-tatertotsandjello1-90x90.jpg 90w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /><br />
<span id="more-65660"></span><br />
Supplies:</p>
<ul>
<li>Mug (mine was from IKEA)</li>
<li>Sharpie, fine tip</li>
<li>Hot chocolate mix</li>
<li>Mini marshmallows</li>
<li>Plastic favor bag</li>
<li>Twine</li>
<li>Optional: paper straws or wooden spoon</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://s245.photobucket.com/user/h2orem/media/hotchocolateneighborgift_zps68991ee7.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter" src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg43/h2orem/hotchocolateneighborgift_zps68991ee7.jpg" alt=" photo hotchocolateneighborgift_zps68991ee7.jpg" width="538" height="808" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Sharpie mugs are a great gift and really easy. First I just practiced my handwriting on a scrap paper until I came up with a style I liked. Then I just drew it free-hand onto the mug. Let it dry overnight. Then you bake it in by placing in a cold oven and baking for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Turn off the oven and let it cool completely before removing. Also I recommend washing by hand rather than in a dishwasher.</p>
<p><a href="http://s245.photobucket.com/user/h2orem/media/hotchocolateneighborgift_1_zpse3971412.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter" src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg43/h2orem/hotchocolateneighborgift_1_zpse3971412.jpg" alt=" photo hotchocolateneighborgift_1_zpse3971412.jpg" width="632" height="421" border="0" /></a><br />
After it&#8217;s ready, put the plastic party favor bag in the mug and open it up. Fill it up to the brim with hot chocolate mix, then top with mini marshmallows. Close it up with some baker&#8217;s twine and add in some straws and a spoon if you want. I like the way it looks!<br />

<p>This 5 minute hot chocolate gift is seriously the world&#8217;s easiest gift! Give it to your neighbors, teachers, or anyone who could use a bit of holiday cheer. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f642.png" alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><br />
