You're looking for a small gift for a friend to say thank you, to repay a certain kindness but you don't want to go over the top. Here's a small gift idea you could consider next time you find yourself in the what shall I get dilemma. I rustled this up the other day for my friend who invited me over, excited to show me her recently installed new kitchen - a few steps out into our garden to see what would best fit the occasion.
At our place we happened to have some herbs in reasonable shape (incredible considering it's winter). I came up with my parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme creation with a few stems of each, added a florist touch arranging them into a neat posy. We had some ribbon I repurposed from a recent gift, tying it loosely around the stems and voila! It took only a few minutes and was well received. If you have access to herbs then use whatever you have. If not consider gifting a leafy potted herb jazzed up with ribbon or some not too fancy gift wrappng... easy to create this simple gift from a trip to your local store without breaking the bank.
I help heart-centred driven people like you think more about growing food and the idea that the gardens which surround us can be a place not only to grow food, beautiful blooms to feast our eyes on and a place to unwind from the sometimes crazy world which surrounds us. If we grow a little in the garden, we learn a lot and grow in ourselves ! If all this growing sounds like you, well hello ! How about signing up for my blog today?
