Creative Ways For Money Gifts!

With Christmas right around the corner, sometimes it can be a bit of a challenge finding a gift for your loved ones. Money is the ultimate gift to give. When money is given, it can be spent on exactly what the recipient wants. I wanted to share with you some Creative Ways to Give Money as a Gift not only for Christmas but for Birthdays, Graduation, or just because.

I’m going to start with a wonderful way to give kids quarters! Quarters come in handy at the newsstand, campus laundries, and video arcades. Cover their utilitarian wrappers with candy cane hues.

What a great idea! Wow…and this one…fill a balloon with wrapped bills and confetti. This is a great idea for birthdays, Christmas, graduations, etc.

Remember those clear ornaments you can get at the dollar store? I used them in a few of my projects…how about rolling up bills, some small pieces of red and green ribbon inside. Top with a bow..and their name on the outside…such a cute gift you can hang on the tree Christmas Eve. See if your recipient notices it …

I love creating new ideas. And now that I am happily retired, I have lots more time to create them! Whether its crafts for decorating my home, or up cycling items I find at garage sales, thrift stores, and even on the curb, and turning them into something wonderful. The creative juices flowing in my head are almost always in overdrive....so many ideas! I love sharing my new ideas with all of you! So please follow me and let me know how I'm doing! I hope I can inspire you.....and if I do....send me a pic. I would love to see your creation.

    1. My sons are older too. I miss the unwrapping of gifts…so I either put the money in a box within a box within a box….make them work for it. Or I also have done ‘the treasure hunt’. Leaving clues, them searching around the house…they love that too!
