Whoopsies
I need some really cheap ideas for birthday gifts that I can make in bulk for my dorm floor. There are about 50 students and I have no idea what to do.
Maybe crepe papering the doors with balloons, then leaving a goodybag... but thats so boring!
ideas?
Answer
Go to Walmart and buy 3 or 6 regular size candy bars, wooden skewers, a roll of unisex color curling ribbon, and some cheap baskets or vases, floral foam, and tissue paper.
Make a candy bouquet by taking your container (basket or vase), putting a couple of layers of tissue paper inside, put foam in it, put skewer through candy bar and place candy bar in foam,then decorate with ribbon

Small Christmas and birthday gifts for my mum?
Q. I don't want to buy anything expensive for her but i would quite like to give her a lot of small presents, mainly ones that come in boxes or somewhere i could buy small boxes as i am rubbish at wrapping things that are awkwardly shaped? Not too expensive but not too cheap?
