*~*New Years Eve Gifts*~* -Easy, Cheap, Fun!

I started working on these this evening, I make these every year for New Years Eve gifts, been doing them for at least the past 12 years.

I pass these out to friends when we meet up on new years eve, also pass a couple out to strangers too, I enjoy sharing these. These are great for any age, adults and kids love these!

You can purchase the Chinese food containers new at a local Chinese restaurant, or wash out used ones with warm water & soap and let air dry.(Recycling is great!)

I just print up a logo(you can find these on line) and tape or glue to the front of the box.

I purchase the sealed fortune cookies at a local restaurant(they only charge me 3 cents per cookie. Since they know us I get my containers for free, I usually do at least a dozen. **You can also add confetti in the container along with your cookies for extra pazazz..

If you get contianers that have the handles you can tie on it a party horn etc..

*Our Chinese restaurant gives out free calenders they seal in plastic(see above) My son just picked up a couple today, I will add them with the container gifts, so everyone gets a set.
I take 3 peices of yarn and french braid them.
Cut 2 slits with a knife on each side of container, run yarn through them,make a knot leaving a little of the ends to make cute Chinese tassles.

Enjoy!!! What's your favorite New Years tradition?

Review- BuildASign.com

I recently received a e-mail from Melissa from BuildASign.com, and was offered a chance to get a free product to keep in exchange for doing a review and giveaway.
I chose the window cling(19 1/2 tall by 16 wide $60 value) and was able to custom make the cling with my business logo on it for my car.

I did have a problem making my logo bigger so it would be proportioned correctly when designing the cling. This was my fault as I didn't know how to make the picture bigger and Melissa thankfully came to the rescue and helped me.

The cling arrived in the mail fast, was packaged well and I thought the cling was made very durable. It came with easy to follow instructions on how to apply the cling to the car window. I got excited when I opened the package cylinder and saw that the cling came out exactly as I had wanted it, it was perfect! Thank-you.

Here's a picture of my window cling they made for me.
Please visit their site buildasign.com
**The product was given free to me but it did not affect my views or persuade me in any way on the product or their site, this is my honest opinion.
