s'more kits {sealed + delivered}



I had grand plans for holiday gifts this year, but I quickly learned that crafting to completion with a 3 week-old baby was kind of...a challenge. Baking? Not so much. So we came up with these s'more kits, complete with twigs for roasting. A simple canning jar, s'more ingredients, cloth, self-made labels, and oila! - sweet holiday treats at the ready. The only caveat, and one that left this sleep deprived mama stumped at the kitchen island, was how to fit square grahams into a round jar. Solution? We used kitchen scissors to cut each graham into neat little circles. Happy holiday roasting!

  7. How lovely! I can't believe you accomplished this with a newborn. I only have one who is 7 months and I didn't manage to do anything. Next year I guess.

  8. I can't believe you put this together with a 3 week old baby. They are beautiful and an inspiration for the next round of gift giving that comes along.
