31 Cheesy, Easy, & Adorable Neighbor Gift Ideas
Looking for neighbor gift ideas? Have I got a list for you! My mom passed this list on to me years ago, and since it was an old, typewritten copy, I thought it was time it came into the digital age. :) I love how cheesy these ideas are, but they are also super fun and easy. I remember quite a few from my growing up years, so they also bring back a lot of memories. If you’re looking for something that you don’t have to bake, there are some really great ideas on here!

One year, our neighbors gave us pizza dough with the same everyone needs a little more dough at Christmas time message as the cookies.
We made "Orange you glad…" burlap sacks for our neighbors. It turned out to be an inexpensive and healthy gift! http://healthymomskitchen.com/healthy-homemade-gifts
This year, one of our neighbors gave us Gummy Bears and said "Have a "Beary" Merry Christmas." Cute!
