In the race up to Christmas I didn't get to share one of the gifts I made....
We have two little nephews, one on each side of the family, both were one just a little before Christmas...
Wanting something a little different and noncommercial I set about making them an "Eye Spy Bag". I used this tutorial .
I filled mine with rice that I coloured.
I then scouted around for lots of interesting little objects to add inside......my house is a bit like that...lots of little things floating around.
I didn't on this occasion make a printed card with all that I had hidden in there. ....little guys aren't really that interested I figured.
I would definitely make these again as gifts...I think even the bigger kids would enjoy them...I know the mummies did!

Of great work! I have made these too. They make great presents. I have to make DJ one. BJ has one. I have all the stuff ready for his I think. Might be a birthday pressie for him. & should make a few more as some spare presents. I spy lego in yours. I won't tell Fraser. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea. I like the bright colour of the rice too..I thought it was meant to be grass when I first looked at it.
