Presents

Not surprisingly, we are all tired today and still struggling with the bed time routine but I have got a couple of things done (amazingly). We have some birthday parties coming up so we had to get their pressies ready.

The first is Caitlin, Alexander's 5 year old girlfriend. She is getting this stationary box below. We bought if for a couple of dollars raw and painted it. Then we cut out some paper in the crown shape, a bit of glitter and a coat of glossy mod podge. Then we stuck on the crystals.

Inside I fill it with personalised stationary, a stam with her name, some note paper, cards, business cards and some gel pens.

Benji and Spencer have also been invited so they also need a little pressie. One of our market bags in denim and inside I have a set of watercolour pencils. So one gift from each of them.

The other gift is for a Daniel. A five year old boy who is obsessed by Thomas. I did this much the same way, but with the addition of some wall stickers that we had bought for Alexander some time ago. So these got stuck on the box and then covered with a coat of mod podge.
