I am in love with gifting in unique ways. This year I made a few different versions of ornament packaging and DIY gingerbread house boxes that I posted on my Instagram. Sets your corneas on these!

I am a private dyslexia tutor and gave this fun pom ornament to as student as a gift for completing a level in the program/Merry Christmas. The sucker is a cupcake topper which was perfect because it gave it natural height.

I went to a favorite things party for homeschool moms from our campus and I brought my handmade gingerbread house boxes and with my favorite nut butter from Gone Nuts. (And no, no one wore clogs with socks and denim skirts to the homeschool party. I almost wore a Biggie sweatshirt. Homeschool: It’s not just for Pilgrims anymore.)

I bought these large globe ornaments from Hobby Lobby and they came in a 2 pack. I’m not a magician. They come in two separate pieces that snap together. You can use blanket or loose snow and these bottle brush trees are what started it all for me. I’m a sucker for a bottle brush tree!

As a tip, loose snow is easier! Just hot glue the trees, figures, gift cards, etc. into the placements that you want, fill up one half while it lays on its back, and then snap the two parts together. I love the way they turned out and it’s cooler way to gift a gift card. Merrryyyyy Christmas!!!!!!

Pin, share, enjoy!
