Quick and Easy Gifts (and inexpensive)

We've been trying to get ahead for the holidays a bit. My MOPS group earlier this month showed us how to make 4 homemade gifts that where reasonably priced. We will be giving two of those - one I make and one the kids make - to teachers, bus drivers and others. Here they are:

The first is Tile Coasters. I simply went to Lowes and bought some 4 X 4 tiles (non shiny) and stamped a holiday stamp on them with a permanent ink pad and colored them with colored sharpies and the baked them both after the stamp and then again after coloring them. (350 for 15 mins.) . Then we put felt pads on the bottom and wrapped 4 of them with ribbon for giving.

The second one is gem magnets for the frig. We got round magnets at the craft store and cut festive scrap paper to fit the top of the magnets. We glued the paper to the magnet and then a clear gem (that you put into the bottom of vases) on top and you have fun festive magnets. You can package these in a plastic bag and the magnets on a mason jar lid. Makes for easy gift presentation. Enjoy the fun of making these with your kids!
