OMG! the cute things they made in elem. school! I have an "olive dish" made of clay. It shrunk so much it would hold one olive!! The yellow clay trinket box with lid( lid sits lopsided), the Xmas ice candle( put Xmas paper in a milk carton, added broken ice cubes and poured melted wax over it. ) The clothspin doll that is suppose to look like me(LOL) and the jar lid with a school picture, glitter and ribbon. I wouldn"t part with any of them, and they come out every year, much to the embarrassment of the makers.LOL It is funny tho, one year the candle had been misplaced , and I didn't have it sitting out, and the maker, 25 years old at the time, asked why it wasn't there. So I think those gifts mean as much to the makers as they do to us mom's.
