That's my day. Over at Paper Craft Planet. We are all in charge of a different day, so I picked number 8. I thought it would be fun to use Milk Maid Caramels. But I could not find them and wonder if they are a Canadian thing. So instead I did Chocolate Malted "Milk" Balls. We didn't have to do anything that worked for the day, but I thought it would be fun to at least try.
This time of year we are rushing trying to get everything done, and sometimes the easy peasy gifts are just as nice. You need a little somethin' somethin' for a neighbor, the mailman, the milkman, the girls in the office, your boss, your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator…oops did I say that out loud..ha! Just kidding. Although one of my sweet downline Donna gave me the cutest t-shirt today and it says Vampire Bait….I LOVE IT!!!
So while I was at the store looking for the caramels, I found this cute jar, and they come in all sizes, so I picked it up and thought hey how cute would this be with some of the Merry & Bright Rub-Ons on, or even a Decor element too. And look how cute it is…
It was so easy to add the rub-on to the jar, and what is nice is, if later you want to re-use the jar you can wash off the rub-on if you want. I tied some red polka dotted ribbon around it and…
…added an ornament punch on top with another of the rub-ons on it. Easy and cute.
What do you think? Can you handle that?

Cute jar!!!! We have milk maid caramels here in Georgia. Not sure if its a regional thing though.
OOO them milk balls are making me hungry!
That's a cute idea.
We have those caramels here too, usually in those bins of loose candy in the produce section of the grocery store. Do they still have those bins? Hmmm. I'll have to look next time I go to the store. Your "milk" gift is cute and looks yummy.
Hi Shana,
Oh those bins! Yikes I stay away from
the bins of stuff. I saw a lady at the grocery store yesterday trying a cracker
out of one of those try me saucers with the lid the other day, and I
was like…ugh! How many fingers touched the other crackers.
Ill stick with my pre-packaged candies…ha!
Hugs,
Di
