Baby Shower Gift - so proud

This past weekend I had a baby shower to go to.  A couple weeks ago I ordered my gift, an Amber Teething Necklace.  The necklace came in a small drawstring bag, so as I was getting ready for the shower,  I put it in a small gift bag and attached my card.  I took a look at it and it looked absolutely pathetic!  

I debated weather of not I should go to the Dollar Store (the only store here in town - the nearest Walmart is at least a 20 minute drive) and pick up something else to add to the necklace so my gift would look a bit more presentable.  After much debate, I decided that since we are really trying to watch our money, I didn't need to get anything else.  However, I felt really stupid walking into this shower with a super tiny gift bag when everyone else had arms full of large gifts and packages.   

In the end it was a HUGE hit and the couple thought the necklace was such a great idea and can't wait to see how it works on the new baby.  I was so proud I had made the decision to save our money and stick to my original gift.
