With our little gift ideas, we would like to motivate you to make useful souvenirs with your children and thus bring joy to other people.
The splash of color on the kitchen table!
Family Seasoning
The splash of color on the kitchen table!
Material:
- full sprinkle seasoning tin
- transparent adhesive film
- colored tissue paper scraps
- appropriate bible verse on paper
Cut the adhesive backing to the size of the sprinkle spice box. Then tear the Bible verse and the tissue paper scraps to fit. Remove the protective paper from the foil and carefully lay it on the table with the adhesive side facing up.
Place the Bible verse on the foil with the scripture facing down. Decorate the rest of the foil with the tissue paper scraps.
Important: don't decorate the whole foil, the foil still needs to stick to the tin too.
Carefully stick the decorated foil around the sprinkle seasoning tin.
Tape the seasoning with a Bible verse that emphasizes family connectedness and encourages loving interaction = "seasoning" for family life!
Ballpoint pen
The splash of color next to your phone
Material:
- New ballpoint pen refill
- air-drying modeling clay (DAS pronto)
- Toothpick, small wooden stick, paper clip or similar
- Decorative material: feathers, beads, wire ...
- Water paint, Nitrohartgrumd to paint
- Brush
- Covering or adhesive strips
- White glue
Protect the tip of the ballpoint pen refill with masking tape. Now shape the modeling clay around the ballpoint pen refill. There are no limits to your imagination, the modelling clay must surround the refill compactly. Generously surround the end of the refill with modelling clay so that this end can be decorated. (If needed, use toothpick to pre-drill holes for embellishments.)
Cut ornaments or letters into the modeling clay. Allow the wrapped lead to dry out completely - preferably overnight.
Paint with watercolors and let dry again. Tip: the best way to paint the ballpoint pen is to put it in a Styrofoam cube.
Paint the ballpoint pen with the nitro hard base. For younger children, an adult should help, as Nitrohartgrund is not water soluble. (Clean the brush with thinner). Allow to dry again.
Finally, glue the decorations into the prepared holes.
Moss rubber stamp
The splash of color on your desk!
Material:
- Wooden block or old wooden block
- Moss rubber scraps
- White glue
- Scissors
- ballpoint pen
- to sketch in advance
Pre-draw a simple shape or initials of the recipient, etc. on the foam rubber and cut it out.
Place the foam rubber shape face up on which the stamp print was pre-drawn. Coat with white glue and press the wooden block face down and allow to dry.

Do the same for the opposite side.
