Gift 3

I've been thinking about small gifts this week- things to make for the neighbours and teachers and others we know for Christmas. I'm thinking about making chocolatey things like fudge and truffles because, well, I don't think you can ever have enough chocolate.

The children have had such great teachers at school this year. They seem to be truly sad to have their last day of term today. I'm especially grateful to Keira's teacher who has made her first year at school so easy and happy. These are some small gifts I made for the teachers: zip-cases from fabrics the kids chose for them, which I've filled up with soaps from this local shop. Easy.

    You are absolutely right. One can never have enough chocolate. I’m currently addicted to dark chocolate sea salt caramels.
    I think zip cases and soap are perfect gifts. These fabrics are really pretty and what cute drawings.

    Thinking about small gifts here too. Will be trying my hand at making my first batch of rocky road this year, but will probably go with the well-tested shortbread recipe also.
    I love the little zip-case, cute combination of fabrics 🙂
