We have a winner from the Christmas Giveaway!!  Congratulations Margaret, an e-mail is coming your way!   a Rafflecopter giveaway I just finished up some colleague holiday gifts and wanted to share them with you all in case you're looking for a quick and easy gift.  I have seen MANY variations of soap gift tags on Pinterest but decided to make my own tag.  I LOVE how they turned out and can't wait to hand them out tomorrow! I just uploaded the Peace, Joy and Soap gift tags as a freebie to TPT which you can download now by clicking on the picture below! All you need are the soap bottles (I used Tis the Season by Bath and Body Works), ribbon and the gift tags.  Unfortunately, due to copyright restrictions (the file must be a secured PDF) with the super cute clip art I used, the pack is not editable so you would have to write your name on the tag after printing.  Happy Holidays! ...

For some reason I didn't take many pictures of the calendars last year, this was all I could find. I laminate the front cover and then bind all the pages using an ancient comb binder.  I also then have all the kids wrap their calendar and fill out a name tag for whoever they want to give it to.  The calendars are a ton of work (and messy!) but I always had such nice feedback from parents.  I...
