Gifts from Maria

My friend Maria in Guam sent me these lovely items. The top photo shows a note card holder and four coordinating note cards. It's really a wonderful gift! I'm hoping she remembers to send me the pattern so I can make some for myself.



This shows the note card holder closed with the note cards inside.




And this is those cute pencil holders that I've made. They can also be done in an asian theme and used for chopsticks. . .perfect for that dinner party you've been planning. Well, Maria took it further and used them for gifting candy (umm, what are they called? the sugar in a paper tube?? , well they're yummy, and totally a blast from the past.) Thank you to Maria!!!
