| Make Your Own Fruit Basket And Trays
|
|
Don't pay to get your fruit baskets made, do it yourself. You can buy a basket or pretty bowl, or anything you want too make this in. The wrap you can get at Dollar Tree and you just pull it over the basket or container and use a blow dryer on it. Just like the stores do, only less expensive.

| Making Cooking Oils for Gifts
|
|
Great gifts to give to teachers, hostess, family members. Take tall glass bottles and add oils and put in herbs and let set so oil takes in the herb flavor.

| The Gift Of Tea
|
|
One of the best gifts we ever received from a friend was a huge bag of individually wrapped name brand teabags (all different varieties and flavors). It was from a coworker, whose sister worked at a brand name tea factory and got factory discounts.

| Look For Giveaway Dishes For Food Gifts
|
|
For giving cake, cookies or candy at Christmas, to new neighbors or a sick friend, I look a garage sales, Goodwill or sales at retail stores for containers. Today at the General Dollar Store, they had their summer dinnerware on sale for half price.

| Gift Coffee Mug Jams
|
 I have a couple of friends that would like jelly but in a small amount, I started doing this years ago. Whenever I make jelly or jam, I always put approximately 3/4 cup in one of those coffee mugs I would really like to get rid of.

| Making Almond Roca
|
|
Making Almond Roca. When I make almond roca the sugar and butter mixture sometimes separates. The result is a greasy, not as hard or as tasty, product. Even when I make it on dry days this will happen. What am I doing wrong?

This Christmas I would like to give out candy in a Mason Jar with a tag of cute quips. Like "Do Not Open In Case Of Emergency", "Bad Day at Work Emergency Candy", "kids out of control..." and so on. Can you help me think of some cute ideas?
