As promised, a quick post about the table gifts I have made for Christmas this year. I had a bee in my bonnet about Chinese take-out boxes and found a template on the internet here. Enlarged it so it was big enough to for my gifts to fit in, then cut it out of glittery paper. I made some name labels using photos from my library to go with the flowers I have ordered for Christmas and after filling up with goodies (including a fortune cookie!), tied it up with bits of wool from my stash.
Gold for the grown ups...
...and red for the children who will be on their own table...
