House Warming Gift

Recently my childhood friend moved across town to a beautiful new house.  Her new home is situated on a large wooded lot, and even came with an adorable chicken coop, in ground pool, smoke house, and a wonderful old stone building.  It is a dream house to say the least!  As a gift, my other girlfriends and I went in on a housewarming gift for her.  This was such a fun, simple gift to put together, I thought I'd share.  You know, in case you have a special gift to give soon and can't come up with a cleaver idea.  Gardening season is upon us, and this package, any gardener would enjoy.

This gift came with a gift certificate to a local nursery, a potted Hydrangea, seeds, hand towels, gardening gloves, and some home and gardening magazines for inspiration.  It was all packed in a garden planter I found at Home Goods.

Here is a close up of the tag I made for the gift.  I used a little of this and that which I had in the craft room.  The gardening images are from the Graphics Fairy.  She has the best selection of vintage inspired images!  A little glue and creativity, and you have an adorable handmade gift tag.
I cut everything out and pieced it together on top of a vintage music sheet card.
I love the way it turned out.  These gift tags are sometimes a little gift in themself.  I wish I had more time to make these.  We have so many customers in the shop looking for gifts to give, and these would be the perfect addition to a special gift.  Enjoy your week and hope for warm weather so we can get growing!
