   Just buy a gift from tjmaxx or homegoods or ross. Instead of giving someone cheap stuff from dollar stores.

  Tjmaxx has some cute towels and kitchen items to make this as well. Doesn’t have to be dollar store. Just a fun way to gift these items is all 😀

  My city doesn’t have any of those three stores, but does have a dollar tree. I appreciate Hip2Save posting cute and creative gift ideas that can easily be made with inexpensive items

  Some dollar stores actually have about the same quality utensils at tjmaxx too. Just because it’s a dollar doesn’t mean it’s necessarily cheap! I have $1 utensils that’s are still holding up nicely!

  It’s just not many people will appreciate the gift especially a close friend , back to reality.they think that’s how much they worth.

   I did a dollar store gift set for a friend for her first apartment. We are now well into our thirties and she still has and uses a couple of items.

  Hi Jaci, I did a baby announcement party for my son. It was Ahoy Party. I ordered party favors directly from China (aliexpress.online). It takes about one month to arrive but the items are so cheap. I personally hate presenting cheap stuff for ppl. But the set is cute itself. If somebody want to present cute gifts just google for joseph joseph items. OMG, they are the best gifts for Housewarming. I presented a cutting board for a friend, and presented carousel cutlery set for another friend, they absolutely love it!

    What a cute idea. Gift giving gets so expensive. I love giving but have to definitely stretch my budget sometimes to aconlinemodate all of the birthdays, anniversaries, showers, and other events–not to mention Christmas so I think these would be really cute for an inexpensive housewarming gift. I’d throw in a gift card and call this baby done!

    Thank you Lina- you always have great ideas and great instructions!
    Dollar Tree vendors are many of the same as Marshall’s, TJ Maxx andHomegoods. Dollar Tree has re-merchandised and resourced many products so they are more upscale than they used to be. $1.00
    FYI- I bought the same mylar balloon of a birthday cupcake for $1.00 that Party City had for $5.95.
    Just a heads up, I needed a dozen balloons for a party 4 hours away from home, I didn’t want to drive all that way with the balloons bopping around. I bought the balloons locally at Dollar Tree and had them filled up at a Dollar Tree 10 minutes from the party. They told me people do it all the time. Just show them your receipt and call ahead and make sure they have enough helium.
    I was able to get exactly which balloons I wanted and didn’t have to worry they would not have them at the destination store.

    Great ideas! I need some ideas for graduation parties ( not the laundry one) – my daughter has been invited to 5 so far and it gets very expensive. Thanks!

  Last year I helped my friend put together gifts for all of her son’s friends that were graduating (he could take to all of their parties). We designed a cute Hershey bar wrapper using the school colors, the graduation year, etc. She tucked a $5 – $15 gift card (depending upon how close of friends they were) in the wrapper around the candy bar. She bought gift cards at Costco (iTunes) to get a discount. She also bought a Starbucks gift card off of a discount site then used it to buy the smaller ($5 – $10) cards.

    I’m totally doing this for the mothers who go unnoticed and unappreciated in my onlinemunity. The gift itself is cute, affordable, and classy enough to make a woman tear up for just the thought. I’m heading to Dollar Tree this weekend. Keep posting and I’ll keep praying the best for what you are doing. 😉

    Maybe instead of using the word “cheap” use “inexpensive “! I was taught it’s the thought that counts…giving or receiving!!

    Great idea!. Just purchased the items and will make something similar for our Christmas family gathering and gift exchange. We are a large family and gifts can get expensive. We actually have the $20 Dollar Tree Gift Challenge we are doing this year, so this was perfect! Thank you 🙂 We are a family that LOVES home made and crafty. It’s not about giving “cheap” gifts. We all appreciate the effort and creativity that each family unit will bring to the table. OAN: I work with people that are on low fixed inonlinees and showed the idea to a couple people and I will now be helping them make the kitchen set for their family. Again, thanks 🙂 Blessings to you and your family this holiday.
