A Cute Little Gift…

Okay, so our Relief Society group didn’t make this, but my mother-in-law’s Relief Society group did, so that counts.  Lynda was kind enough to bring a dish soap bottle to me and one to my daughter at Thanksgiving:

I originally thought that the saying was printed on a clear label that was adhered to the outside of the bottle.  Not so!  Lynda said that the saying was actually printed on a sheet of clear plastic (several sayings to a sheet).  Lynda cut the individual sayings out of the sheet and then rolled them up and stuffed them into the neck of the bottle.  She then used a pencil to stick down into the bottle to unroll/straighten the plastic sheet out until it was flat and to push it toward the front of the bottle.  She then filled the bottle with dish soap, added the lid and the bow, and voila!  Instant cute little gift!
Here is the saying that is printed on the insert:

Dirty Dishes
Thank Heaven for dirty dishes;
They have a tale to tell.

While others may go hungry,
We’re eating very well.

With home, health, and
happiness,
I shouldn’t want to fuss;

By the stack of evidence,
God’s been very good to us.
