Dollar Store Craft - Pill Container

Today will be my last post, here at Bloggin' The Crafts.  I have decided to start a website and combine all of my bloggy blogginess into one spot.  (Yes, I made those words up, but it's my blog, so I'm allowed to make words up).  This is the last post you will see here at Bloggin' The Crafts.  Now I'm sure some of you are sobbing right now (ha ha), but do not fret dear friend!  I am not gone forever.  You can now find me at.....(drumroll please......)

Chaos and Craziness

Here you will find all of the crafty inspiration you have come to love at Bloggin The Crafts plus recipes, health and fitness posts along my weight loss journey, and general ramblings as I try to manage the chaos and craziness that is my life!  Things are still being developed over at Chaos and Craziness but I'd love for you to check back several times a week.  I hope to have a "follow by e-mail" widget installed soon so that you can get reminders when I publish a new post.

Now, with no further ado...my last post at Bloggin' The Crafts!

Dollar Store Craft - Pill Container

Yes, that's right...PILL CONTAINER.  Now, before you shake your head and think "I don't need a PILL container; I'm too young for THAT"...hold yer horses, Missy!  This pill container isn't for pills.

It's for appreciation.

That's right...appreciation.

I saw this idea HERE and I thought that it was a CUTE and FUN idea that I must try...asap!

Now, the project linked to above is geared toward a spouse, but you could TOTALLY adapt this for your kids, a friend having a trying week, heck...even a teacher for teacher appreciation week!  (...ding... light bulb moment...)

My hubs really likes "Good and Plenty" candy, so I used that and Starburst candies for my treats.  I printed the notes on card stock and folded them up for the pill container.  I loved the one that I found at the dollar store because it's HUGE!

This is really a quick and simple craft.  You can even print off the "notes" from the link above, or take a minute and create your own.  This isn't a HUGE opening, so a little candy with the note and it's a done deal.

There's mine...all filled up and ready to go!  I'm going to put it on the hubster's nightstand tonight so that he can start it tomorrow.  Nothing major, just a fun little reminder of "hey, I like you...even though we haven't had conversations about much except sick kids and work stuff lately....I like you, and I appreciate you".  We all need to hear that every now and then, right?

With Valentine's Day right around the corner this is a fun and quick craft the you can make for someone that you care about!
