I always like to make up a little gift package for co-workers and my boss every Christmas. This year I put together "cookies in a jar".
The dry ingredients, nuts and chocolate chips are layered in a large Mason jar. A recipe card is attached with instructions on how to make the cookies ( the recipient will have to add eggs, butter and vanilla themselves). I photocopied the recipe and attached it to pretty card stock and used ribbon.It's an easy and inexpensive gift that is a perfect give-away to neighbors, teachers, co-workers and the like....
I found a pair of nested painted wooden boxes at Michael's for about $3.00 and used them to package my gifts. Each box got a cookie jar..........
....and an assortment of home-made Christmas cookies and home-made roasted pecans in small gift bags tied with ribbon...
A pretty card that I made gets tucked in with the gift bags..............
Ribbon and glittery tags that I stamped decorate some of the gift bags as well..........
Thanks for stopping by!
