Make It Meaningful: Get Well Soup Bowl Gift

Raise your hand if you've had it? The bunk, the flu, a cold, or any illness this season. It seems to be running rampant through all my friends' families, and it's just a tough time to be feeling crummy. When I'm not feeling well, I like a little pick-me-up, a reminder that I'm not forgotten and the opportunity to be taken care of.

How about creating a Get Well Gift made from items that can be found at your local Dollar Store?

To create this Get Well Soup Bowl, simply add a rub-on to the soup bowl. You'll want to seal it with a people-friendly sealant. Then use your favorite paper crafting supplies to decorate additional items you place in the bowl. I added a soup spoon, a hand towel, and a bag of pasta. Because it's over the holiday season, all of my items are Christmas-themed. But you could follow any theme you'd like.

A little gift can go a long way to making someone feel better. Prepare a few of these ahead of time so that when someone you love is under the weather, you have something thoughtful to share with them!
