I decided to buy my daughter (8) a nice girly mug because she loves a hot chocolate or warm milk before bed. I was going to put it in her stocking but decided to make it a proper present intsead.
I saw these lovely mugs in Woolworths for £2 each so I bought one for her friend too and have put inside sachets of hot chocolate, various fun size chocolate bars, santa chocolate lollies, a few chocolate coins and little foil christmas shapes, wrapped them in snowdrop cellophane and topped with ribbon, bow and handmade name tag
It would also make a nice present for a teacher.
Total cost per mug = £3 :T

WOW!
They look so professional! And you'd pay about £10-£15 in the shops for those. It's such a rip off!
I'm sure your daughter will be delighted...
Well done and thanks for sharing.
