a little bag of gumballs.

I have never outgrown my childhood giddiness over brightly colored jumbo gumballs. (Never mind that they lose their taste after three minutes and make my jaw ache. Those are things you only notice when you're all grown up.)  And anyway, I forgive all that because they're just so pretty!  And for those three yummy minutes they are pretty delightful.

So I was really excited to sell big bags of gumballs at our last piper and chloe showcase, but to my utter dismay we sold ZERO bags.  Well maybe we sold one.  But still.  It wasn't really the most profitable idea I've ever had.  So.  What do you do with five hundred gumballs?  After pondering over it for the last few weeks this is what I came up with.  A much smaller bag with a happy birthday tag stapled on top, for the perfect little birthday present topper.
