Gifts for the co-workers

I'm always a little nervous when I plan to make something for my co-workers for Christmas.  The pace inevitably picks up during the holidays, so I worry that I won't be able to follow through on my idea.  This year, I planned a very doable craft - a mini clipboard with a personalized post it pad.  I did my shopping early for the supplies and even spent Thanksgiving cutting and decorating the "clipboards." After unsuccessfully trying to design a post it from scratch, I selected one of the templates from Vistaprint... When all the components came together, I was quite pleased with the end result!

I snapped this shot of the clipboard on my co-worker's desk, ready to be used. Yay!

Because packaging always matters...
I also included a mechanical pencil as part of the gift.

 Yup, this is how many I made...

This is a custom order for my mom.  She'll be using it as a favor
when she has a Christmas brunch with her friends.
