Hi Ladies,
Today I was in Michael's and they are starting to get ready for Christmas - Yep Christmas. They had a rack loaded with $1 items that would be great for little gifts for you guests. There were some really adorable boxes that could also be hung on a tree and they are a nice size too (not tiny). The boxes were decorated in an old fashioned Christmas theme and were different shapes - star, oval, round. They also have small candles in a glass holder (three different scents - vanilla, cinnamon and evergreen) wrapped in tule (sp?), magnets, gift cards (small Mary Englebright (sp?), bath salts in cute triangle boxes with a ribbon, To Do Lists (some with a small calendar on the top) some had a Christmas cookie theme too. There are probably other items I missed but this will give you an idea of what I found. I imagine all the Michael's stores carry the same items.

Yes, I LOVE Micheals, too! I get a lot of inspiration just by walking around in there. Their floral section always gets me, I can't leave that store without some new flower arrangement material. I have so many boxes of fake pointsettias of every color, some with glitter on them. But I use them every year and make different displays... top special presents, stick them in wreaths, etc.. you know. One year Michaels had Christmas mugs for a good price and I filled them with goodies and wrapped them in plastic wrap.
