Where do you draw the line to who you buy gifts for? You have teachers, co-workers, neices, nephews, aunts, uncles, grandparents, etc… A person easily runs out of money when buying for this many people. Since I love to give gifts, but my wallet doesnt, I decided to make some. Instead of buying gifts for co-workers, teachers and others I decided I would make them cute, useful presents. When I saw these glittery candles on Pinterst I knew that was a perfect gift idea. Simple, cute, but useful. These would also be a cute little hosting gift. Include some body scrubs, lotions and you have yourself  spa gift package! So easy.

All that is needed is glitter, modge podge and cheap little candles

step 1: easily peel off wrapping on candle

step 2: apply a liberal amount of modge podge

step 3: sprinkle on glitter

step 4: to keep glitter from getting everywhere apply another layer of modge podge on top of the glitter layer (it will dry clear)

How cute! Bonus–only costed a few dollars and didn’t take much time at all

Do you have a iPhone, iPad, iTouch or any other apple product? iTunes cards make great gifts. They even have great packaging that you are able to get 3 $10 dollar gift cards. There great for stocking stuffers or just to put in a birthday or get well card. I think that it really neat how they did that. Very clever!

I have a iPhone and I use iTunes all the time. I love finding new games, videos and music on iTunes. I love seeing new items on there. They update stuff a lot. I always check on it before I go to bed. There is cheap, semi cheap, expensive and super expensive apps, movies and music. It all depends on what your looking for.

For example, for my beauty school we have a app on the iTunes app store to help us study for the New Jersey state board test. I would find this super helpful even thought this app is $35 dollars plus tax.
