Military Monday: Holiday Cheer

I know it is a little late and I have already posted about canned cakes (refer to Military Monday: Cake in a Jar) but I thought I would post this to give some ideas how you can bring the holidays to your marine!


I used fabric for the lids, wrapped the edges with ribbon, tied ribbon around the VIAs and used scrap-booking paper for name cards. You may think they will think the cutesy stuff is cheesy, but the truth is they like it, makes them feel like home came to them, even if they never admit it, it's true. They like it.
