These are favors for my nephews who for the first time agreed to celebrate there birthday together.

It was at the ice rink in Virginia and they are 10 and 4 and most  of their friends are common between them like Peppa and George from Peppa pig. Since the age group varied from 1-10 they decided to get gift cards for everyone and being the creative aunt I stitched these skater bags as covers for the gift cards. It was very pretty and did I mention Yellow was one of there fav colors:). I made quite a few extra and used them as christmas decorations too.

Fun, eco-friendly and reusable packaging for favors. I always have tons of these boxes since I use for various different things – in my studio, my kitchen, pantry etc and when my friend asked me to help her make favors for her 4 year old son under $5, I knew I could put them to good use. So I filled these baskets with legos and used cling wrap to cover the top and sealed around it with washi tape. I used plain paper, marker and stamp to create the thank you note and viola!
