Recently, I needed to send cookies to a meeting that I was unable to attend in a friend's home. I tried to think of a nice way to send the treats
(other than using paper or plastic) without troubling anyone to return a plate or container to me. I decided to check out my local thrift store. I found a pretty plate, and paid all of forty-three cents for it!
Then, I wrote a little note on the bottom with a marker:
I've been gifted with a plate of treats in a similar way, and it really is nice (often, at the end of a busy day) not to have to hunt down somebody to return their dishes!
[Oh, and don't worry about the price sticker and wax pencil marks from the thrift store. I washed them all off before I sent the plate on it's way!]

Just a reminder:
Today is the last day to use the 20% off coupon
"MOMSDAY3" in my Etsy Shop.
This coupon code is now expired.
This is so fun to see that you and I do the same thing. I love that you wrote on the back of the plate the intentions of the plate. I bought a set of 4 heart decorated plates some years ago to put treats on to deliver to neighbors. 2 of the plates came back with goodies!
