Graduation Cap Gift Jar


With graduation just around the corner, here is an almost free clever packaging idea to give a grad - a "graduation cap" jar from a recycled jar, some felt, a button and embroidery thread.

Depending on the size and shape of the jar and the present, such as a Smartphone, an Ipod, gift cards or cash, or print out a picture of a larger item, then tuck it inside a piece of white printer paper rolled up to look like a diploma and tied with ribbon.

The "Everything" Play Table - a fabulous low cost DIY present for a child!

This "Everything Table"  was created by Craftser user leighi123 (and the winner of the Handmade Holiday Gifts for Kids 2 challenge) that she crafted for her 4 year old son for Christmas using an old shoe rack, wood and felt and integrating a few other items and toys.

Not only could this be made at a minimal cost, it also takes up minimal space (see last picture).
