I’m always at a loss when it comes to thinking of gift ideas for my nephews. Doug and I have 19 nieces and nephews spread out across the country and my goal is for each of them to know my name. (I know, it’s not exactly a huge goal- but when you live 2,000 miles away from a 4 year old you can only hope for so much). Birthdays are our thing, I figure that way I get to every person at least once a year.
It’s always so easy for me to find something fun to send to my nieces because I can remember being their age. But boys… they are hard! But I figure you can’t go wrong with candy, right?! I whipped up this little candy gram to use for gifts, and thought I’d share them with you guys in case you’re at a loss for gift ideas too.
I wrote out the words of the candies, that way if you only want to stick on 1 or 2 candy bars, the message still makes sense :).
Click here to download your own! You’ll need regular sized Reece’s Pieces, Mounds bar, Almond Joy, Extra gum, Milky Way, Big Hunk, and Hersey’s Kisses and/or hugs. I sized it so that the regular sized bars can be taped right over their correlating words. Just print, tape on the candy and you’re set!
The file includes 2 different pages. They can be used on their own, or you can tape them together to make a bigger candy gram. I taped one below the other to make a long strip and then rolled it up to make it a bit easier to give as a gift (or send in a box!). The 3rd page of your download includes a ‘congrats!’ label that you can cut out use to wrap around your candy gram tube to keep it rolled up nice.
Hope this makes your gift giving brainstorming go a little more smoothly!
Beautifully PERFECT !! Thank you so much for sharing your talent ! My twins will love them !
