Help for your Family and Friends

I cracked up the first time I saw one of these First Aid Kits and knew that someday I would have to make one!! Can you think of any better way to put fun in the Holiday?? What an elfish way to remind your friends of the joy of the Holiday Season. A season that is always chucked full surprises, smiles and laughter.. Do your friends need inspiration???? Well then.... give one of these little First aid kits as a gift. I know that my friends would laugh and chuckle so hard they would fall on the floor laughing hysterically. Isn't that what we are suppose to do.. make the Season fun and memorable for all? I think the list of items would look awesome in a handcrafted pouch with a zipper. Then you could use the pouch over and over again once the contents has been used up :) To remind them of the fun gift that they received by you :)
