New Neighbor Gift Basket & Printable

February 18, 2013 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

I have new neighbors! My house is on a private drive and when it was built a year and a half ago, there was only one other house on the road. In the fall a new house went up and the neighbors just moved in a couple weeks ago. Now, there are plans for a fourth house to go up…so, it seems that my hopes of living in a neighborhood are actually coming to fruition! 

Enter the Welcome Basket!!
New neighbor gift basket ideas and free printable

I went to my local dollar store and purchased a basket and a bunch of household items that someone might need upon first moving in. In total, I spent only $10!!

Items included:
 -box of tissues
-dish towels
-dish soap & scrubber
-trash bags
-batteries
-cleaning wipes
-pens & sticky notes

Using Photoshop, I designed a little card to go in the basket (taped to a wooden skewer)…
you can download the FREE PRINTABLE card, too!
Happy Gift-Giving!

Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was get Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was getting ready for bed and I looked out my window and saw both a deer and a bunny and pretty much felt just like Snow White! I can’t get enough of these cute visitors (and also know I won’t be spending a ton on landscaping since most plants won’t stand a chance)! 🤣
Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry tre Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry trees in our backyard…watching them bloom has been nothing short of magical. And the scent of the blossoms!! Absolutely divine! 

Buying an older home vs building new can have its perks- one being an established yard (which I just fell in love with). We’ve got neighbors all around, however, the backyard feels pretty private thanks to landscaping done years ago by the previous owners!
Facebook Marketplace for the win! I’m so in love w Facebook Marketplace for the win! I’m so in love with my recent find…the curves are just so darling! I often see many great finds on Marketplace but because I don’t have a truck or trailer, I have to miss out on a lot. I knew this desk would fit in the back of my SUV so I jumped at the chance to grab it. What’s your favorite secondhand find?

Kitchen Progress Update…lots has been done but als Kitchen Progress Update…lots has been done but also still lots to do! I’m not in a hurry with this renovation…working full time and having a kid who needs lots of attention really limits what can be accomplished (and budget)!! But, I’ve got lots of ideas and plans and will chip away at things slowly. My main goal was to get the flooring and counters done before moving in and the rest can happen…whenever! 🤣😊
