A few of my boxes are themed or extra matchy-matchy! It gets more expensive when I get emotionally attached to a box! But, it is fun! I have found pencil/binder pouches, stuffed animals, toys, t-shirts, shoes that have spurred character themes or color schemes. I also am remembering my teen boy's childhood fondly or doing a box here or there thinking of someone special. Sometimes, I can sense the Lord really moving on behalf of a special child!!
Like this box for oldest girl, 10-14 is a great example. It all started w/Academy clearance shoes in a wonderful color! I got the outfit in 2 different trips to Palais Royal clearance w/super coupons! I love how it all looks together. She will also get toiletries, hair accessories and school supplies. I felt driven to go back for this gauzy blouse, it is so pretty with the bright skirt. I will squeeze in a craft or sewing kit for her.
Dora the Explorer and her monkey side-kick, Boots! The boys watched Dora on her adventures! Flip-flops were 70% off at Target w/additional 20% off cartwheel.
Stars and stripes /red, white and blue theme. Target flip-flops, same deal as above. I will deflate the ball. I will make something w/the ribbon? My baseball Momma friend gave me bags of crafting supplies, the ribbon flag came from her. I got the hair accessories at Dollar General, 50% off clearance weekend!
Spidey theme x 2. Very colorful! My boys had tennis shoes and some toys. Shoe clearances started these out. Not sure I should have, but gotta make them work now.
For the love of a child!!
