    I did paper products for neighbors one year and added this poem:
    Sending you are warmest Christmas wishes
    And a holiday season with a lot fewer dishes!

    Love it! I think it would be a fun gift for a teenager whose chore is to do the dishes. I think I’ll tie up a couple for my daughter.

    I like the idea gifting less labor to your neighbor! But I equally hate the idea of disposable dishes. What a waste!! Make it more personal and give to each other the gift of time and elbow grease during the holidays :) You can spend some time together and sample each others party goodies!
