Christmas Handouts



I wracked my brain this year for something to give to neighbors and friends. I wanted something different then the norm. I thought about things we had received and things we had given out. I had my mind set on giving out the yummy Gourmet homemade popcorn (see "Life is to be enjoyed blog"). Then when push came to shove that idea didn't really hit me. Addison and I were at Big Lots the other day and came across miniature Christmas Trees. I decided to do a handout about the meaning of the Christmas Tree. The trees were $1.00 each , but on sale for 1/2 off. So for fifty cents even better. We loaded up our cart. All we needed was a trip to the scrapbooking store for just the right paper and wha-la, a Christmas Handout.

Adorable!!! What a thoughtful gift. We all love edible treats, but at this time of year, we get more than we should eat. Great idea!! Love ya.

Those are so cute!! That is a great idea. This year I'm being lame and just doing peppermint popcorn and chocolate covered pretzels.
