Neighbor Gifts--The Gift of Hope, no Soap...

This might spoil it for some of you that are my neighbors, but for the rest of you time may be running out for a good idea, so I wanted to share mine!

AND, it only cost me $1 per family!

AND i'm entering it the Poppies at Play linky party today so that is the real reason I'm posting this! *update* Also entering in the Tatertots and Jello linky party

Introducing the gift that keeps on giving all year long:

So Here's what you do:

~Go buy up the 88 cent Equate soap (or Soft Soap) at Walmart, I got mostly green ones because it was festive. I got a few red ones, but they are harder to read. The blue ones are good too but the labels are harder to get off.

~take off the front and back labels on the soap. I used Goo Gone to help get the stickies off!

~You'll need a few transparency sheets that are good for printing, and a laser printer--
~Design your art and then print it out on transparency sheets with a laser printer, or you can get them printed at a place like FedEx.

I personalized each one with their last names:

I also made a few with just a monogram & a cute border like this one:

~After you get your transparencies all printed, you cut out each one and roll it up and stick it in the soap. You can use the pump to help it unroll and secure it into place.

~Then tie a ribbon on it and a tag that says this:

That's it!
Your neighbor or teacher with LOVE it.
The best part is they can keep using the bottle by just adding more soap!

merry christmas!!
