I wanted to make something for my bosses birthday. I saw a gift for the beach lover on Mrs. Jones blog. Someone repined and added a note about switching it up to a blanket and hot chocolate for Christmas. That gave me and idea!! Why not make something for a night in! I know my bosses (they are a husband and wife, it was the wives birthday) like to stay in with their kids and have family nights together. So I came up with the Night In Gift idea.
What I came up with:
Fluffy Blanket
Box of Tea
Bag of Chocolate
Movie (I found a true story)
Book (Another true story)
The blanket I found at Target actually came with a ribbon band so I didn't have to buy ribbon. I used the ribbon on there to be my "glue" that holds it together. I took the cardboard out of the blanket and shoved the book, movie, tea and chocolate in there. Tada it was done and I think it was a pretty cool gift!
This is a great gift for mom or anyone that you know that loves to snuggle up with a good book or movie. Hope you give it to someone special.
