a rainbow of polish

my daughter was recently invited to a sleepover with her volleyball teammates.
and i thought it would be fun for her to take a little treat for each of the girls.
knowing how much my two girls love nail polish, i figured it was a safe bet that these girls would love it too. 


of course, i couldn't just send a handful of polishes with her.
i had to find a cute way to package them all up.



supplies

    • nail polish
    • paper crinkle
    • large plastic eggs (i got the 2 multi-colored packs at target, the colors worked perfectly)
    • white cardstock
    • washi tape (found at target and cute tape)
    • plastic treat bags (3.75" x 6")


putting it together:

    • place the crinkle paper and polish inside the egg
    • tilt the top of the egg so you can still see what's inside and attach the back with a piece of tape.
    • to make your topper, trim a 4" x 2.5" piece of white cardstock, fold in half and place a strip of tape across the front
    • put the egg in the bag and finish it off attaching the topper with a couple staples
. . . . . . 
 

what colors are you wearing this spring?
are you a bit of a rebel, sporting more than one color at a time?

Really cute...I bet this was a definite hit with the girls. I love it...may have to try it out with my daughters friends!

This is so cute! I think I might use this next year for my daughter's class.
One thing I think I would do differently is staple first, then put the colored tape over it, just to hide the staples. I also think the ribbon you find in the dollar spot (Target) for scrapbooking would look cute over the card stock. Thanks for the great idea!

This is adorable! And yes, I totally rebel and wear more than one color! Usually because I can't pick just one! haha

This is such a cute idea, since I have six sisters and three nieces I could do this forever. WHo gets tired of nail polish. Thanks for the great idea!

Just found this on Pinterest! Someone above said they've found washi tape in the office supply section of Target, but I've seen small rolls in the dollar section, too. Lots of colors. My nieces will love getting something girly in their Easter baskets!
