12 Days of Shopping: Custom Labels for Presents Because You Are All Done! (Day 12)
I am a big fan of the Avery label 5164, 3 1/3 inches by 4 inches, or six to a page. Yes, it sounds weird to be a fan of a mailing label but these are exceptionally useful for:
Labels to stick on personalized gifts
Book plates
Birthday party invitations; just stick to pretty card (from Paper Source)
Return address labels for packages
12 Days of Shopping: Quick Gifts Whole Foods/Foodie Stores (Day 11)
Capability:Mom and I are on the home stretch here both for our 12 Days of Shopping posts and for our own holiday shopping. This post lands very close to Christmas and is meant to help you out if you need to dash to the store for one more present whether it’s a quick return gift from someone who unexpectedly gave you a gift or someone you accidentally left off your list. Or maybe you are so efficient that you can do all your shopping in one fell swoop!
12 Days of Shopping: Cat/Dog (Day 10)
Capability:Mom and I found lots of great toys and treats for cats including architectural and cool cardboard scratching posts, high tech chase toys, and seeds to plant a garden for your cat to enjoy.
12 Days of Shopping: Husband/Wife (Day 9)
My husband is not an easy guy to shop for, as are most husbands. They are closet about that; they seem easy to shop for because they are happy and grateful for whatever present they unwrap but the tell tale signs … the sweaters sit in their closet never worn. They ask, several years later, a tad embarrassed, if they can donate those never worn sweaters when they are cleaning out their closet. Other presents seem to just disappear magically, though you know for certain that they were not returned for a refund or a store credit!
12 Days of Shopping: Garbage, Mail, Hairdresser, Delivery People, Babysitter, Cleaning Person, Dog Walker (Day 8)
It’s no surprise to my husband that I don’t know the etiquette of tipping and holiday gifts for sanitation engineers. He is the one who is in charge of our children’s manners as he thinks that I was raised by wolves. So, I am thinking that it’s probably best that I defer this category entirely to Capability:Mom.
