SUPER GIFT IDEAS FROM YOU

LUCKY PENNY

My mama always told me
"Lucky Pennies" are a gift.
The angels throw them down here
When someone needs a lift.
And so I give this gift to you,
'though it doesn't look like much.
It is filled with special meaning
And is blessed by an angel's touch.

TURTLE POWER

Use a handpainted little turtle. Add label or tag, "Let this turtle be a simple reminder to slow down, cherish each moment, and enjoy each day. IF LIFE IS A RACE, BE THE LAST TO FINISH!

A GIFT OF LOVE

Wrap a small empty package. This can be a piece of cardboard, wood, etc. Attach the following poem:

A Gift of Love
This is a very special gift
That you can never see.
The reason it's so special is
It comes to you from me.
Whenever you are lonely
or even feeling blue,
You only have to hold this gift,
And know I think of you.
You never can unwrap it,
The ribbon will stay tied.
Just hold the box up to your heart:
It's filled with love inside!

SMILE

Use a small handpainted smiley face, sticker, etc. and attach this note: "SMILE...It makes people wonder what you are up to."

OR:

"If you see someone without a smile...give them one of yours. "

LUCKY HORSESHOE

Use a plaster horseshoe or a charm. Attach label:

Lucky Horseshoe
This shoe is a gift,
It's a powerful force.
It's given to you
For good luck, of course.
So when things go right,
Consider the source.
And always give thanks
To a shoeless horse!

TED E BEAR

I put a little hand painted teddy bear in a bag with the following poem:

Ted E. Bear- the world's perfect male.
He'll sit and listen to EVERY detail.
And when you are through, just set him down somewhere.
When you need him again, he'll be right there!
