I feel like I’ve said this before, but I love a gift basket/care package situation. There’s something so fun about receiving a bunch of little gifts all hand picked for you. For our latest project with Balloon Time, we put together a DIY birthday in a box for your BFF! Essentially, it’s a box filled with everything you need to celebrate a birthday with your bestie and there’s cute printables that take you all the way through the day, from the balloons (duh) to the champagne! Check out the full post and get the printables here!

If you want, you can also make your own personalized notes for this and adapt it to whatever your BFF loves (a movie night, a girls night out, a spa day!?)!

LOVE all the puns. What happens if you just send yourself a cupcake? Asking for a friend.
Kelly says
Ha! If you send yourself a cupcake then you are probably a genius 🙂
Divina says
The link to get the printables only goes to the Balloon Time website but I don’t see a link there. Please advise. Love your blog!

What a great idea! I have been making little gifts for my friends, but I never thought about preparing them huge boxes like these. I’d have to do my own budgeting though. HAHA
