I LOVE my bestie.
Love. Love. Love her.
She has been my friend for 20+ years, and was my Maid of Honor when I got married.
(And actually.. probably was the best maid of honor in the history of the gig)
We grew up close to each other, but now we live 3 provinces away and only see each other a couple of times a year *tear*.
The hardest thing about being so far away is that we no longer get to celebrate all of our birthdays, holidays, and accomplishments in person with one another.
A phone call is just not suffice all the time.
We still do our best to call and send a little something, but you often end up paying more for the shipping (darn Canada Post!) than you do for the gift itself when you mail anything.
So I thought... what can I buy/make that meets all my criteria:
1. Thoughtful
2. Not too heavy to send by mail
3. Homemade (if possible)
So here's what I came up with... I bought a lightweight coffee mug, and filled it with chocolate, teas and a starbucks gift card. Then I crocheted some lovely coffee cozies for her mug :)
Plus the homemade card with a picture from my wedding day [but that's a given with me...lol].
Ta-Da!
Love you times a million!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE you too! And I loved loved loved my presie...I say loved because I have already consumed everything edible lol. Thanks again for everything! It was very thoughtful, and I love the card, I stuck it on my board at my desk at work. I also brought the mug a cozies to work and brag to everyone that you knit them. People are impressed!
ReplyDeleteLuv ya forever and for always :)
Your bff,
