Welcome my fellow broke college students!
I talked last blog about cheap ways to buy gifts for the up coming holiday. This week I am going to keep with that theme and show several different gifts you can make yourself and all under
$5
For this blog and activities, you need to have a local dollar store (my favorite place in this whole world).
Shout out to this awesome blog where I got most (all) these ideas
The first gift is any type of candy with free Christmas printable on it
The typical candy treat is a candy cane and you get like a pack of 50 little ones at the dollar store. Since you're at the dollar store just go by the arts and crafts section and pick up some fancy ribbon to wrap around the candy.
Then go home and print out one of these free Christmas printables and BOOM!!! 50 Gifts done.
The next one is super cute!
As seen in the picture, all you need is a dollar store pack of doughnuts, dollar store black construction paper, a dollar store sharpie, and some dollar store ribbon.
Just tie the ribbon around the doughnuts, use the sharpie and draw face, cut out the little hat in the black paper and...... BOOM!!!!! SNOWMAN GIFTS DONE!!
For the next one, It's going to take some time to make.

Use a small microwave safe bowl and melt some chocolate. Use candy cane spoons (yes they exist) (and yes they are at the dollar store) and dip them in the melted chocolate. Then put it in the fridge to harden up. You could stop there or read below...
For the more creative people who want to spend $3 more, add a snowman!
Create the snowman body with three marshmallows and stick little pretzels in the side for arms. And if you want to go big and beyond- add little chocolate chips as eyes. BOOM!!!!! MORE CHEAP CHRISTMAS GIFT!!!
For more exciting and cheap Christmas gift check out that blog that I mentioned at the top! I hope that these ideas help you have an affordable Christmas!!
