I made these sweet boxes to put them in, I love how they turned out - especially the bow on top, made using my Envelope Punch Board, as were the soap boxes. Now that's one tool I'm really glad I bought.

A local business put out a call for donations for a struggling family with 4 daughters who could not afford a Christmas. I couldn't ignore that and wanted to give the girls something personal, so they each got a boxed soap and lip balm (and some other things for the parents too).

And a lovely side note that really put an oomph into my Christmas spirit - the business was hoping to fill 1 washing basket with things. I was thrilled to hear that the generous folks in town gave enough that 2 car loads of goodies were taken to the family on Christmas eve, and I think some cash donations as well. What a wonderful effort - and typical of the Aussie spirit of helping others.
