In about 3 weeks our Cheerleading Squad is going to camp. We each have to bring gifts for the rest of the squad.(there are 13 of us,all girls) I want something thats creative, yet cheap. Do any of you have any ideas? This is my first year as a cheerleader and I really don't want to bring a lame gift/gifts. People in past years have brought: picture frames, gift baskets ect....
--------------------
Use a variety of beads in your school/squad colors to make bracelets for each person. At Hobby Lobby or Michaels crafts stores, you can even find small charms befitting of most any toopic (cheerleading- pompoms, megaphone, the word "cheer", etc.) to add to each bracelet. Another idea is to make decorated shoelaces for each person. Get plain white laces and decorate with team/squad colors by using puff paints...just make simple dots or dashes down the length of each, or write "Cheer!" repeatedly. Tie-dying them would be neat, too. This craft would be so cheap, that you could probably give everyone a couple sets! One more- what about making a small "sit-upon" for each person. It would be super easy. Just get printed flannel that matches your team colors (the kind that's used for blankets) and measure two pieces the size you need for sitting plus six inches. Cut fringes or notches about one inch wide around all edges. Place a peice of cotton batting between the two pieces; match the fringes together and tie knots to "sew" them together. Each person has their own "sit-upon" for the upcoming season!
