My cousin just sent me this link: MyKleenexTissue.com.
You can order oval-shaped Kleenex boxes customized with a photo that you upload and decorate with borders and text. I played around with the tool, and it was pretty fun. You get to see a 3-D version of the box you’ve created. This would be a cute way to commemorate an event where crying is expected, like a wedding.
The price is $4.99 per box plus shipping. Shipping is calculated in the shopping cart, but will be about $6.00 to ship 1-6 oval cartons, so that’s crazy for one box, but economical to purchase six.
Since I have become a mother, our use of Kleenex has skyrocketed, however, I think this would be even more of a thrill for the grandmothers. I just ordered each of them a box with a picture of the baby and text that reads “Welcome to my bathroom. Would you like to see more pictures of my new granddaughter?”














[...] Activity #455: Wrap your baby and stay warm – See picture. Activity #38: Learn baby massage – I took a free class at Elephant Pharm this week. Next one is Aug 28. Activity #494: Build a better Kleenex box – I sent a personalized Kleenex box with a picture of my baby to all three grandmothers. Activity #17: Soothe that baby – Validating that a swaddled baby naps longer. Activity #92: Go to the theater where crying is allowed – Scarlett’s first movie was Hairspray! Activity #122: Say “Yes, thank you.” – I am pleased with myself because when my seven months pregnant friend Lisa asked how she could help, I told her to come over and hold Scarlett for 20 minutes while I go drive Julian to school. I’m proud of myself for saying “yes” to the help. Activity #100: Get a pedicure – Heather and Milo came, too, and we sat in spa chairs while the babies sat in their carseats. Activity #205: Meet a monkey at the zoo – Ok, this was really for Julian’s benefit, but the result of being #2 is that you get to go to the zoo when you are just a few weeks old. Activity #361: Make some easy kids pants – I made a pair of tiny tiny pants for my tiny tiny girl out of a cute pink tshirt. It took about twenty minutes. Super fun to tell people I made them when they comment. [...]
