I just wanted to say this is a very lovely project. I like it much better than a huge, time consuming and expensive candy bouquet. It is affordable yet still classy. You did an amazing job!
I like and appreciate the way you showed and explained all the minor details. For people like me who aren't gifted in the arts and crafts dept, (I can't even tie my shoe laces properly nor make a decent bow) this is so helpful!
I have been making gift baskets and personalized gifts for years. I mostly use my Mary Kay and coffee products I sell, but always good to find other gift ideas. This would be great for a child and add hot chocolate with the candy.
It's a lot about presentation, and your presentation is very pretty. I don't know anyone who wouldn't like to receive that as a gift. Thanks for sharing & God Bless...
I've seen these before, but not like these. These are so wonderfully made❤️️. Those little extras that you have added really make them special❤️️ Plus I can see you made them with love. Very sweet! Thank you...Great ideas!
Cute ideas for Christmas gifts. I work at the Dollar Tree, I can't tell you how many people come in for gift ideas. Now I have a few more to share. Thanks Again. 🎄
Wow!!! I love it!!! I think I need to make 11 of these. I like adding the paper and the gold sparkly ribbon. Great idea! Since all of mine are for men who love my baking I am going to put Christmas cookies in them. The bow still scares me but I do have some time to practice! lol Your little dog sounds cute! Thank you so much Tracey, for sharing your ideas and talents with us. I am going to send you a photo of my wine bottles that I finally finished. (I couldn't find my glue gun lol) Hugs!
I think your bows are fabulous! I don't think you need practice. Just go for it! So glad this helped you come up with ideas. Christmas cookies are a great idea! BTW...hope you found your glue gun! Hugs, Tracey
From one chocoholic to another, I admire your restraint! That's an adorable idea...where do all you crafty people come up with these things? When I'm in Dollar Tree I know there's potential for amazing things...I just don't get the ideas ...so thanks for sharing!!
+Highview Hill Micro Farm You should have seen me before I started recording...lol...So glad you like this idea. I look forward to sharing more. Hugs, Tracey 🎄
Hi, Tracey! I had to come back to this tutorial . . I just love that red mug, and the newer version that looks more like a coffee cup too (and still oversize). I got some more white, red, and now black for the guys. I think this is one of the nicer standard items that D.T. always carries. I'm going to be doing a pack of biscotti with little bag of ground coffee, a tea-themed one with strainer, tea, and honey, and of course this candy one that started it all. I think this was the first video of yours that I discovered last year. This video is an oldie but goodie!!
+Judy Consilio I think I saw those mugs on the last trip to DT. I may have to pick up a few. They would be perfect for my daughter's new place. This video is definitely an oldie but goodie and I appreciate you watching! Hugs, Tracey ❤
This will be perfect for my pre teens that come over and hang out and put hot cocoa mix!!! They'll love it. Thank you so much btw thank you for sounding so clear.
Why would you buy mugs anywhere but a dollar store hahahah! Anything I can buy at a dollar store I do. No point in spending more money than needed ! lol
I can’t believe I’m just now seeing this!! Wonderful gift ideas! I am binge watching your channel. Thank you for sharing your awesome talent with us! I’m definitely using these ideas this coming year!
That design on that mug reminded me of a couple ramekins I have which led me to another thought for a gift. If you're making them up for more than one person you could buy those cake in a mug packets and put one or two in there with a small dollar photo album and instead of photos put in index cards for recipes and start them off with two or three recipes of other meals that you could cook for 1 in that Ramekin.
Yes....and those small Xmas plastic storage containers would be great as well. Put paper in according to the color on the outside. I found mine at the dollar tree when they first start putting out Xmas items. Just put the top at the very bottom, two gifts on one
I just got done making one of them..it was so easy and I love the way it turned out..I definitely will be making a lot more..thank you so much for this idea :)
Nice gift idea!! In your video you provide detail instructions, thank you. Plus, the lovely bird calls of a local Bluebird, must be springtime when this video was created? LOVED IT.
Paula Tulkens ooh yes! I heard teachers have too many cups but I love cups I would seriously buy storage cupboards of some kind to keep them in. I’m wanting to be a preschool teacher and an x-Ray tech part time so I would be in cup heaven lol.
Great idea! it's better than a selection box at Christmas, I'll be making them for this year. Thanks for sharing!! P.S... so funny when the gold piece broke!!
Another Great Gift Idea. There are a lot of options for these as well;;;; hot cocoa, tea, coffee samples just to name a few. Thank you so much for the inspiration. :) Carolyn
I love the mug with candy i love watching your videos i especially love the bows you just made so quick out of the ribbon i wish i could do that ant chance u make video on bow making love watching your videos thank you❤

+Carol ellis It sure does! Thanks for watching! Hugs, Tracey
I just wanted to say this is a very lovely project. I like it much better than a huge, time consuming and expensive candy bouquet. It is affordable yet still classy. You did an amazing job!
Thank you :)
When I wrap a gift with cellophane. I use a twist tie first, then I tie with a ribbon. Just a suggestion to make it easier for you.
I like and appreciate the way you showed and explained all the minor details. For people like me who aren't gifted in the arts and crafts dept, (I can't even tie my shoe laces properly nor make a decent bow) this is so helpful!
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching. I try to give as many details as possible. Glad my bow tutorial was helpful! Hugs, Tracey
I have been making gift baskets and personalized gifts for years. I mostly use my Mary Kay and coffee products I sell, but always good to find other gift ideas. This would be great for a child and add hot chocolate with the candy.
There's so much you can do with this idea! Happy Holidays! :) Tracey
Hi I'm having a ball learning a new craft. Love the usage of everyday items too.
It's a lot about presentation, and your presentation is very pretty. I don't know anyone who wouldn't like to receive that as a gift. Thanks for sharing & God Bless...
