Small jars of jam, curd, or relish



Dec. 19th Small jam, curd and relish gifts.

What a great gift of love.
Use one of your favorite jam or curd or relish recipes and fill a small jar.
If you like you can create a whole basket for a family by
filling a large jar with a rice/bean mix, a med. jar with a fry bread mix, a small jar of relish, and another large jar with a cake or cookie mix. WA LA
A meal in a basket.
Line the basket with a beautiful kitchen towel and place it at someones door.

Origami Frame



Here's a creative idea to send your Christmas photos in.
Use two sheets of your favorite paper or something that will look well with your photo that's Christmasy.
Place the back of the paper together then follow the directions.

Once again you can add a quote, just place it under the picture under the bottom flaps or use a marker and write it on the picture it's self.
Maybe someone you know would like a picture of the GURU and this would be a great gift for them. You could use tinfoil for the paper and have a lovely silver frame, you could wrinkle the tinfoil before using it and have anohter beautiful effect.
Just use your imagination.
You can also add little trinkets to the corners and doll it up all kinds of ways.
Or tuck some dried or silk miniture flowers under the corner.
Just have fun.
