while away on our trip, we have a handful of amazing families chipping in to feed our animals, water our garden, gather our mail, care for our pets, keep an eye on our home & more.
simply put, this trip would not happen without our village.
so naturally, a gift basket was necessary.
although our home is a modest space, my hope was that our house served as a mini retreat away for the families staying here. i thought it would be fun to gift them a basket of goodies to make their retreat a little more special.
i purchased those fun plastic totes from target for under $5 each. i filled them with a handful of kid-friendly treats.
i also included homemade strawberry jam, a tea towel & my favorite candles from epantry!
i printed off this fun (& free!) hello summer printable from here & attached it with a colorful mini clothespin. i made custom tags using their last initial & tied it with fun coordinating fabric ribbon!
all in all, each basket cost me less than $20 each & serves as a very small thank you for the incredible generosity of each family!
do you have any fun goodies you like to share with your house guests? please share!
