Bracelet Making Gift Set
Berry containers are so perfect to make little craft kits as gifts. We have filled them with t-shirts and puffy paint, pom poms, and googly eyes and rocks and paint. On this day we made a bracelet making box for my son to give to my daughter for a birthday gift. Homemade gifts are the best!
How We Did It
I first lined the container with a piece of felt.
Next, Grayson got to work on decorating the outside with foam stickers. It was the simplest way for a two year old to decorate and it came out pretty cute.
Next, he enjoyed filling it with bracelet making goods which included an assortment of beads and pipe cleaner.
The last touch was to make a bracelet to go on top of the box. This was great fine motor skills practice for those little two year old hands!
I tied the bracelet on top with a ribbon and a little gift tag. Once it was closed all Grayson wanted to do was open it back up! I love that even my two year old can give homemade gifts, with just a little assistance of course.

I put together a set like this for my niece and she absolutely loved it. It was a good reminder that kids don't need expensive toys or gifts to make them happy!
