My cousin is getting married next month and I was invited to go to her wedding shower. I will admit I have not been to a wedding shower in F.O.R.E.V.E.R. and was not sure what to buy. Then I remembered an idea that I pinned (I love pinterest)
it was a cute basket for a date night from Darling doodles blog and to make it even more perfect...she had a printable with a cute poem ready for you to download.
I loved the cute little poem she had but thought the font was too hard to read so I made my own with some clip art that I had from doing a movie night birthday party for B.
I went to walmart to get all of my stuff I got a plastic bowl instead of a basket to putt it all in. Here is what I put in mine:
A movie- mine happened to be Princess Bride(which I know she loves and doesn't own)
A couple bottles of Root beer (the ones in the glass bottles, because I thought it would look cuter)
Some bags of microwave popcorn
Red vine licorice
and some boxes of theater candy-sweedish fish, junior mints,recess pieces,mike and ikes, skittles, and one other that I can't remember.
When I had all my stuff I ran over to the dollar store to get a roll of cellophane and a cute bow and went home and assembled the whole thing.
I crumpled up tissue paper and put it in the bottom of the bowl and arranged everything on top of that.Then I wrapped the whole bowl in cellophane and a red curling ribbon bow and tied the tag on.
The whole gift including wrapping cost me 27.00 not bad right?
Check back next month for the wedding gift.
