Here's a gift for springtime. This was inspired by mason jar kits I've seen for various things. This kit has lots of things for a picnic.
I've included outdoor toys (like bubbles), tupperware (I like this set, since it has a wide variety of sizes), and a gift card to Whole Foods. You could also add plasticware or sunscreen.
I packed it in a basket, but you could use a mini cooler. The whole thing is wrapped with a vinyl tablecloth.
A storage place for the little things I do around the house in between raising a kid and writing on wattpad.

Paper Cup Wreath
All the cup wreaths I've seen were made by nesting the cups within each other, so I wanted to try to make one more like a starburst. I got almost all of the items at the dollar store. I used: paper cups, circular floral foam, colored tissue paper, thumb tacks, pins, and scissors.
Then I cut the cups in half long ways.
And pinned them to the foam through the bottom of the cup.
Below is the final wreath. In the end, I didn't even like it enough to use it, but maybe someone will run with the idea and make something better.
I wrapped the tissue paper around the floral foam, tacking it in place, until the whole thing was covered.
