Among some other little things, I made my lil' a cork board...it was real cute. I bought a medium sized cork board from Michaels and also bought bronze, pink, and blue paint pens. I got an anchor stencil and stenciled anchors (in bronze, pink, and blue) all over the cork. You could still push push pins in with out messing the anchors up once it dried...it was really cute when all was said and done. I wrapped it all up in a bag I ordered for her off of e-bay - I had it custom made in her favorite colors (these type of bags). I threw in some other lil' stuff...pens, pencils, and a picture frame. She loved it!

Sorry to crash. I made my little a pillow case with letters and her pledge name. I also got her a bear and stickers with her pledge name (Care bear). I also made all kinds of homemade cards.

Some of the crafty things I did were cork boards like CJ's, tote bags with iron on letters, picture frames, and pin boxes. I'm sure if you go to a craft store you'll get tons of ideas when you're in there.
