I started by picking up some good quality, inexpensive bamboo cutting boards and utensil sets. I used this method from another post of mine to put each lady's initial and decorative flowers on each utensil and their name and flowers onto the cutting boards.
Mimi's cutting board is looking so sweet!
Here is one of grammy's spoons!
Next, I grabbed some of the flour sack dish cloths left over from our Pin Tuck Dish Towels and got to work putting ruffles on each one. Granny Carol got pink paisley ruffles, Mimi got white ruffles, and Grammy got green ruffles. I am posting a separate tutorial for the ruffled cloths, so stay tuned!
This is Granny Carol's completed set. If I have a little extra time between now and then, I am going to embroider something cute onto each dish towel.
We are also throwing in some of these cute little bead suncatchers that the kids made more of recently.
We are also wrapping each present in a special wrapping paper we created, but that is another post for another day.
I think each of these special ladies are really going to love their box of kitchen happies.
Let me know if you tried any of this for your Mother or another special lady in your life!
