Homemade Christmas Gifts: Stocking Stuffer Exchange

Between the Hitching Posts

is hosting the

Handmade Stocking Swap 2009.

I had 14 kids to make goodies for

ranging in age from

10 months old to 6 years old!!

I made a Crinkle Fleece Star

for the 10 month old.

Felt pouches for each of the three

1 year-olds containing

my Rainbow

craft foam bath time friends.

And finally...did you guess it?

Mini Rainbow Rice

Eye Spy bottles

for all of the big kids.

I saved mini plastic bottles

from drive-through chocolate milk

(thank you Burger King)

and small water bottles

to use as our rice bottles.

I made a big batch of rainbow rice

with the girls.

Then we added tiny goodies

to the rice and bottles:

birthday candles, paper clips,

pom-poms, mini toothpick flags,

beads, polly pocket shoes,

a shiny penny, feathers, etc.

I super-glued the lids

onto the bottles

so there won't be any spills!

What are you putting in

your stockings this year?!
