The $5 Gift Thread!

[Jesse]

For an inexpensive gift that keeps on giving. Use a solid color plate, (cheap thrift store find) and write the message with non toxic paint pens. Load the plate with goodies, maybe some cookies, or a dinner for someone who is sick or shut in. Use the words from the plate below or write your own, but the idea is that the receiver pass the plate on to another, preferably in your circle of friends and/or family. In all fairness, for this to come in under the $5 one may need to already have non toxic paint pens.

Here are the words for those who are like me and have some vision issues:

“This plate shall have no owner for its journey never ends, It travels in a circle of our family and friends. It carries love from home to home for everyone to share, The food that’s placed upon it was made with love and care. So please enjoy what’s on the plate, Then fill it up again, Then pass along the love it holds to your family and friends.”
