Mother's Day Pop By

I don't know about you, but Mother's Day has crept up on me. Just a few days away and I'm thinking it'd be a great time to do a pop by! But what can we do that's quick and easy? Pinterest to the rescue! I found my inspiration from Better Homes and Gardens. Their idea was for a wedding centerpiece, and quite frankly, is much prettier (wedding centerpiece). But I liked the idea and had one of those "I can do that" moments, so I adapted it for my pop by.

I started out with just a plain brown paper lunch bag and trimmed about 2" off the top so it wouldn't be so tall.

I purchased some small 4" pots of Marigolds at Home Depot for $1.19ea. and a roll of ribbon.

Then just fold down the top of the paper bag, insert your little plant and tie it off with bow!  The card says "Your Referrals Make My Business Bloom. Happy Mother's Day!" You can include your business card, too. Just stick it behind the card, or put them both in the bag sticking out of the dirt.

Here's the finished product...

Don't forget, if you have friends, family, or clients moving to the San Diego area, I'm never too busy for YOUR referrals!  Happy Mother's Day...to you or to yours :)

I'm Fishing for Your Referrals

I'm starting off with one of my favorites!  I saw a whole tub of these small 2oz. boxes of Goldfish crackers at my local pharmacy (also seen them at the grocery store).  They were $1 each so go grab as many as you'd like.  Then swing by the fabric store and get any kind of fabric that resembles fishnet.

My very creative friend made the tags for me that say "I'm fishing for your referrals!"  Just wrap the tag up in the netting and tie it off.  (I threw in my business card, too.)  You are now ready to go fishing for referrals!

Now here's the best part...you can download your own tag for free right here!  (I use SugarSync to share files.  Just download and print--use Avery template 8371)  I hope you enjoy handing them out to your clients as much as I did.  And remember, if you have clients moving to the San Diego area...I'm never too busy for YOUR referrals!
