Cruzan Mai Tai, a pre-made cocktail, costs 8.99.....add a package of straws from the dollar store and tie it with a bow!

Here are a few practical ideas from the past
Buy a few paper goods ($1 ea) and add your favorite recipe for a holiday dessert - or better yet, bake it!:
Buy 2 $1.00 dish towels at the dollar store and create a Yule Log by rolling them into a log and tie with a bow!
Make some fudge for under $10.00- you can pack it in a pretty box or make wreaths and buy a cute little holiday dish at the dollar store!
Paint a $1 ornament with their initial on it:
Those are great ideaa!
ReplyDeletePatti I love all of your ideas! That Yule log is just the cutest! Paper goods are always appreciated-especially at the holidays. And right now I'm thinking a cocktail or two isn't a bad idea. lol! Thanks for hanging with me and sharing such great ideas.
ReplyDeletePatti, I must say your blog post came at a perfect time for me. I am invited to a Christmas party and didn't know what type of gift I can bring the host. Your ideas are perfect. I was going to bring a bottle of wine, but your gift ideas are so much better. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteI love all of your 'Cocktail for One' ideas, Patti. A great way to give a new drink a try!
