We’ll have to plan another day off this month -yay!
One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 18 – Children’s Explorer Kit
Today we got together a fun little gift for my boyfriend’s nephew. His big 5th Birthday, so we wanted to get something creatively put together.
I’m always a fan of putting together packages of different items that work together, so here’s what we came up with:
An Explorer’s Kit!
First, we found this cute pair of children’s binoculars and found a camera case with strap that it could fit into.
Next, we had to get something for him to write his “findings” in, so we managed to find a set of three mini ring notepads. To go with that, we found a multi-color pen to jot down different color-coded notes (or squiggly drawings…) and finally, for his top-secret findings, we found a Doraemon magic ink pen with blacklight!
I also made an Explorer’s checklist (with a helper’s version for his brother) just by getting clipart online and changing the main explorer’s colours a bit so the boys don’t have matching ones.
Then we packed it up in a cute box, and done! Total cost for the kit = ¥630 ($7.63 USD)
Before he gets it in the mail, we’re going to send a quick e-mail with a few riddles to get him to try and guess what his gift is. Hopefully he likes it!
One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 5 – Furoshiki Handbag
A surprise in the mail!
I received a beautiful gift in the mail from a couple of friends as a late Christmas gift -we were all supposed to get together around Christmas time, but first my boyfriend got sick, followed by me (-_-;) After that, all of us got busy as usual, so we decided to at least mail eachother’s gifts.
Since my friends know me so well…… the sent me a beautiful furoshiki handbag with removable handles.
I absolutely LOVE IT!
