Every neighbor can use some fancied up hand soap or sanitizer. See how to make this at Creations By Kara.

I love all gifts in a jar!!!! The neighbors can use it when they want. Cookie mix, brownie mix, soup mix, soft scrubs, toppings, spices, nuts, cupcakes, pasta, etc. There are so many options. Visit My Delicious Ambiguity to see a round-up of more than 30 gifts in a jar ideas including free printable tags. (Picture from Make It Do.)

Nannygoat made these adorable stamped washer ornaments last year. These would also be fun for your own tree.

Make a CD of your favorite songs and package it in this cute CD holder.
See how to make it at The Creative Itch.

And last (but not least), we've made these deliciously tasty PEPPERMINT MARSHMALLOWS using the recipe from Little Birdie Secrets. We give a packages of hot cocoa mix and a large marshmallow for every person in the family. My neighbors love it (especially their husbands.)
