Give Small Crafts As Tips

In addition to giving cash as a tip to hair dresser, nail tech, etc., I offer a few additional small craft items as a Thank You.

I am a rubber stamper and am always decorating cards, bags, candies, and boxes. I always have a few "extra" items in progress. Whether it is a little candy bar wrapped in pretty paper, a tiny gift enclosure, or a tiny card and envelope, I have been thanked over and over.

I fill a little flat decorated bag with some of these things and have been told that they come in handy when least expected, especially by the non-crafters. I truly think the recipients value these more than a cash tip.
