httpvh://youtu.be/WG4_QKYPCCc”Cold Hard Cash” is a one-of-a-kind money gift idea that will certainly be fun and amusing!
So how do you turn money into cold hard cash?

My husband’s job transferred him to Albuquerque in 1984. It was the first time either one of us had lived more than 10 miles from family. We were excited about our new adventure, and at the same time sad to leave our very close-knit family behind.
Rose Bowl from Germany was given to my grandmother by her mother.
We moved into a new and larger home so I needed more wall decorations.
This was before we had the Internet so I visited several furniture stores, but had difficulty finding pictures I liked in my price range.
We lived several months without anything on the walls until one day I was making room to store old dishes passed down to me by my great-grandmother, grandmother and mother. Continue Reading
A custom silhouette paper portrait is a classic gift that will be cherished for years. The one I had made of my son melts my heart every time I glance at it.
Parents and grandparents especially love this type of gift!
It used to be you had to visit a silhouette artist in person, but these days you can simply email a photograph and receive your beautiful custom silhouette in the mail. Easy peasy!
You can have custom silhouette paper portraits made of children, adults and pets, either upper body or full body. They can also be done of siblings and couples. A silhouette of a couple makes for a lovely wedding or Valentine’s Day present.
When my parents-in-law moved into an independent retirement community, it was bittersweet. They had lived in their home for more than 50 years, but now they no longer had to worry about maintaining it.
With neither of them able to drive, their “kids” frequently would take them to run errands but sometimes things came up, and we just couldn’t.
Seniors living in retirement communities don’t often relish needing to depend on others so it’s nice to think of ways to keep some things status quo to give them the sense of still being independent.
One of the things I discovered my mother-in-law wanted were greeting cards for birthdays and anniversaries or get-well cards for her new friends.
Grammy loved giving beautiful cards as she felt they were a gift in itself. I began collecting fancy, unusual, and 3D cards to give her every few months.
She soon had her own personal stash of greeting cards for all occasions!
Looking for a gift that is inexpensive but creates a “big bang for the buck?” Lottery tickets and scratch offs are fun and easy on the pocket book if you have lots of gifts to buy for Christmas.
A few years ago, my son just started his new job and was digging out of his school loan debts. He wanted to give everyone in the family a Christmas gift, and there are 15 of us.
Braden came up with the idea of purchasing $1 lottery tickets. He placed them inside money envelopes to completely keep the recipient off guard for a better surprise.
At the time, the lottery was sitting at $350 million – one of the largest jackpots in history. It was all over the news making quite a buzz.
The timing couldn’t have been better to give a lottery ticket of this magnitude. Everyone in my family talked about winning and what they would do with the money!
All I want for Christmas is some cold, hard cash. Some cold, hard cash. Some cold, hard cash… This is the Christmas tune going through many people’s minds during the holidays.
That’s because money gifts are hassle free. Cash always fits perfectly and never has to be returned. It never expires, and you can buy anything and everything with it!
The Christmas Cash Ornament gift can be wrapped or simply hung from the Christmas tree. Either way, it’s a creative way to give money during the holidays!
Items you will need:
or Clear Fillable Acrylic Plastic Ornament (these split open in half)Giving plastic candy canes filled with someone’s favorite candy is always an easy last-minute-pick-up-gift. For that thoughtful twist and to amplify the sweetness, add some Christmas cash!
Plastic candy canes are everywhere during the holidays so it makes for an easy peasy gift for giving cash during the holidays.

Looking for a clever way to surprise the gift recipient with money and a pair of gloves?
This idea is so easy peasy. I call it my “Money and Gloves Go Hand in Hand” gift idea.
I like to find a pair of gloves that are out-of-the-ordinary. They could be colorful, unusual, maybe with feathers on the cuff instead of fake fur, or with rhinestones.
You don’t have to limit the gift to just gloves or mittens designed to keep hands warm. Purchase gloves to match their hobbies or profession.
Think garden gloves, bike gloves, baseball gloves, golf gloves, weight lifting gloves, and work gloves.
All you need to create this money gift are:
‘Tis the season to be jolly… unless you get crap for Christmas.
I know of a thoughtful way to save someone from such a tragedy while turning their frown upside down.
It’s a creative and hilarious money gift called “In Case You Get Crap for Christmas.”
It makes people laugh, and it involves hiding cash inside a roll of toilet paper!
ITEMS YOU WILL NEED:
A paint can is a great way to gift wrap because kids and adults can never ever guess what’s inside it.
They’ll never guess what’s inside the paint can!
The “50 Shades of Green” money gift idea is perfect for the person who is difficult to buy for. Perfect because the color green (money) goes with everything!
Fill the paint can with crumpled 50 one dollar bills or one fifty dollar bill or any combination adding up to 50 dollars.
Create a label for birthdays, graduations, Father’s Day or add holiday decorations for Christmas.
