Inexpensive presents
Presents don’t have to be expensive. A pretty bottle, saved from recycling, some free dried flowers, courtesy of Zinnia Flowers, and a string of seed lights, from Bunnings, and a little effort, and my lovely son is creating a beautiful bottle light, for a Christmas present. It’s his second one. The first was a secret Santa present. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a photo of it, but it was so sweet.
