You know the woodburning kits that you (may) use to decorate your paddle? Well they are only like 10 bucks at Michaels...I'm getting ready to buy a cheap wooden frame from Wal-Mart and burn it myself for my little. I'm not crafty, but if you draw it with pencil first and then go over it with the burner, it will look great and really personal!
We also give our littles a pillow when we reveal ourselves on big/lil night (we buy a square toss pillow) and then use glitter, puffy paint, etc to decorate it.
A very practical idea is to buy an 88cent Sterlite box (plastic shoebox shaped) at Wal-Mart and fill it with her favorite shampoo, lip gloss, nail file, etc. Then she can use the stuff inside and the box to keep other stuff tucked away!
I think that notes and cards are always a plus. It does get costly to buy buy buy...especially when my family now has a little, 2 grand-littles, 2 great-grand-littles, and 1 great-great-grand-little! (I know most people don't do things for their grands, but I think they get sad when I have stuff for my little and not them too)! But everyone always loves a note on their door, or "MAIL" in their mailbox....and not more junk mail! In fact - I'm out...I gotta go make cards on the computer to send to my family! Good luck everyone!
