Over a year ago I saw this on Confessions of a Ribbon Addict and I thought it was adorable. 
Since my cheapness won out I did not make one at the time. Then lo and behold I was at a yard sale earlier this summer and found a 6-pack new in the box and sealed for $2. I had to have it! 
I don’t have the cute stamps that she has but I played around with a friend’s Cricut machine and made tiny little popcorn boxes and filled them with paper shreds and then added the ice cream tubs to them.
I love having some quick, easy, inexpensive but cute gifts around the house so when there is a need for some encouragement, a thank-you, or a ‘just-because’ I have something.
And who can resist lip balm named Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Rainbow Sherbert, Rocky Road, Mint Chocolate Chip, Very Cherry Vanilla and White Chocolate Raspberry?
Sometimes it isn’t about the gift, but rather all about presentation!
how cute are those!!!! wish I were sick so you could send me one!
ReplyDeleteThese are SO cute! Love them...

How fun! Reminds me that my gift closet needs restocking too...
ReplyDeleteI've been needing some encouragement lately...ha ha. Just kidding!! :) Love the idea!
ReplyDeleteHow cute is that. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThat is really adorable!
ReplyDeleteyou "played around" w/a friend's Cricut and got those cute boxes? I'm so impressed. I just got a Cricut and it's been hit or miss on my tries. I'll keep trying, tho. Love your project.
ReplyDeleteYou blow me away with your fantastic ideas. I just love it!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! that is a fantastic quick gift idea!!
ReplyDeleteCute idea and those are super cute lip balms! Don't you just love being a woman... there are so many simple things that you enjoy. (Everything my hubs wants is techy and pricey). : (
ReplyDeleteThat's great you keep stuff on hand for encouragement and whatnot. I usually have to run out and find something. Your's is a much better idea.
I agree...presentation can be everything...I just hate spending more on the presentation than the gift itself LOL. What a great yard sale find!
ReplyDeleteWow...I've never even heard of these. Do you know where you can buy them? Or is that in the link that I haven't clicked, yet? ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea just to have something around instead of running out to get something. I know anyone would love to have a little something from you! And the presentation is so fun! I've got to get thinking on that...Uggg you make me think so much!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! No, that's the way to package something. Make it look like icecream. Genius! Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I just became a follower!
ReplyDeleteThose are SO cute! I love making the PRESENTation pretty too. This idea is just adorable and perfect. I haven't had "just because" or emergency gifts on hand in forever. I'm so glad you reminded me so I can keep my eyes open for stocking up. :)
