Movie Night Madness
There’s no better time for a movie marathon than the holiday break. Since there is no school, and lots of down time, this DIY packet is perfect for that day or two, or even five, where your friends do nothing but curl up in a blanket and turn their room into a theater.
Supplies: Large popcorn bucket, variety of movies and/or movie theater gift card, snacks and candy.
Step One: Take a popcorn bucket and put movies inside, around the sides of the bucket.
Step Two: Fill the center of the bucket with snacks, candy and/or theater gift card.
Step Three: Personalize the gift by leaving a note for the person receiving it or decorating it with quotes from movies you left in the bucket.

Hot Chocolate Happiness
This DIY is simple and delicious. It’s perfect for when the weather gets cooler and your friends and family bring out their blankets and fuzzy socks. When there is a brisk chill in the air, it’s definitely time to enjoy a delicious cup of hot chocolate.
Supplies: Glass bottles, hot chocolate powder, marshmallows and any other toppings you prefer to stir into this winter favorite.
Step One: Put cocoa powder into a glass bottle labeled “Hot Chocolate” and the marshmallows into another glass bottle labeled “Marshmallows.”
Step Two: Place the bottles in a basket, and decorate it for presentation. Include extras like a special mug, some whipped cream, candy canes or a personalized card.

Made-with-Love Mug
Holiday drinks are a must, and drinking them out of a unique, personalized mug make them even better. This DIY is great for anyone who loves kitschy, unique items.
Supplies: A plain mug and a variety of colored Sharpies (Tip: Oil-based paint Sharpies last longer, while regular Sharpies can wear off after time).
Step One: Wash the mug to make sure you have a clean base to draw on.
Step Two: Draw whatever design you choose on the mug. It can be a pattern, a quote or the person’s initials.
Step Three: Let the mug dry for a few hours or overnight. Once it’s dry, draw over it, to ensure it won’t fade in the wash. Let it dry again.
Step Four: Place the mug in the oven for 30 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Be sure to put the mug in the oven while it is heating, and leave it in the oven until it has completely cooled down, so you don’t get any cracks in it.
Step Five: Leave a card, note or other small item in the mug that the person may like.
(Tip: Hand-wash the mug gently instead of washing it in the dishwasher.)
