Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Unboxing - GIRL 5-9 🌻 SUNFLOWERS | OCC 2023

[@drogers]

What a bright and colorful sunflower box for Miss 5 - 9! My favorite favorite favorite is the sunflower plush! I just loved seeing that on top and I am sure she will too! Another favorite is the sunflower pouch and drawstring bag that you made! Perfect material! I love how you made the coloring book! It looks very professional and I love the coloring pages you selected! This little lady will have many hair accessories to choose from and she will feel like a flower in bloom! I also love how you used the DT cutouts to decorate the box! They look great! Thanks for sharing another beautiful box for OCC! I will also pray that this one makes it's journey to the Ukraine. Wouldn't that be wonderful! Thanks for sharing friend!

Yes, I had to have that stuffie for this box. It is just so lovable, huggable and happy. I think it’s sure to put a smile on the face of the young girl who receives it. Thanks so much, Denise. I appreciate you 😘

Awesome!

WOW what a great box! Oh my goodness I love that stuffie! 💗 What a cute coloring book you made! You found all those pictures online? I love the sunflower clips & the drawstring bag you made was too cute! So many great items you put together. 💕

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thanks, Debra. Yes, I found all, or most, of the coloring pages online on wonder-day and iHeartCraftyThings. Thanks for commenting 🥰

I know I have said this a few times this year, but I'm thinking this box is now my new favorite !!! And you're so smart to make those books !! The T-SHIRT is so cute and different. Just this morning, I was in Dollar Tree and saw this big felt sunflower for the wall and I almost bought it. But, it would probably go on the bottom, up the side, and over the top of a shoebox !! I get carried away sometime and so I refrained because it would have been tricky, but so pretty with a gold center ! Some little girl is going to be so happy !

[@byrdfeed9071]

Oh, I didn’t see a big felt sunflower at DT. I would have been tempted, too, but you’re right, sounds a bit tricky to pack. Even the Sunflower stuffie was wider than that box, but it’s squishy and I was able to tuck about an inch of the petals down into the back of the box. Thanks so much, Judy 🥰

[@rochellegraham6578]

I just love this shoebox. It is so colorful and bright. The shirt is adorable. Everything goes together. Just when I think you can't top another box with one of your themes, out you come with another winner. You are such an inspiration. Thanks for all you do.

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thank you, Rochelle. You’re so sweet. Thanks for watching today 🥰

[@bluffcitybounty2122]

The tee shirt is chef’s kiss perfection for this box! What a pretty theme.

[@byrdfeed9071]

Hi Morgan! Thanks! I love this one 🥰

[@tracystoaks6573]

Trish, I will be praying with you that this box arrives in Ukraine. What a wonderful themed box. I love it all but especially the stuffie, shirt and drawstring bag. You did a wonderful job finding some many themed gifts. 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻

[@byrdfeed9071]

Please do and thank you so much, Tracy. There’s nothing brighter and happier than a Sunflower. I think all the kids in Ukraine could use a Sunflower box 💛🤎🌻🤎💛

[@marieterry625]

Can you please do a video showing us how to make color books, how to draw books, etc?

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thanks for the suggestion, Marie. I will see what I can do 😊

[@byrdfeed9071]

Ok, Marie, just for you, I published a coloring book video 😉. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@marieterry625]

Thank you 🎉 I truly appreciate it!

[@denise5457]

That is the most adorable plush! I couldn't pick one favorite in this box. I also love the drawstring backpack. The cosmetic bag is very pretty and I think all girls love bags to tuck treasures in. I love the orange mixed in with yellow as well. Just beautiful. 🌻💛🌻💛🌻

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thanks so much, Denise. This one was truly a so much fun to pack, especially when I found the flower plush. It was the perfect wow for the box. It’s not only cuddly and huggable, it’s happy 😁

[@kimmclean9933]

Love this sunflower 🌻 shoebox! You made a cute colorbook! The chelsea doll clothes are so pretty and well made! The stuffy looks cuddly! She will be so happy! Thank you for sharing! 😊🙏

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thank you so much, Kim. I hope it puts a big sunflower smile on the face of the young girl who receives it. 🥰

[@eastcoaststories]

Beautiful shoebox, Trish! Who doesn't love sunflowers? The plush is perfect. I love the coloring and how to draw books you made and the sunflower cover sketch pad. Very nice to include a faux sunflower. Very nice set of playing cards. Fun shirt! Great sunflower pouch with all the hair accessories. Of course, I love the backpack you made. Thanks for sharing, Trish! 🌻🌻🌻

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thank you so much, Sharon! You’re the best! 🥰

[@batmansboxes4936]

Sunflowers are my favorite flowers!! What a beautiful theme Trish. The plush is just beautiful. I love the DIY coloring book. Sometimes you just can’t find what you need so make your own. Ahh the iron on after my own heart. I put iron ons on everything 🤣. Really like the orange and yellow together. I think this young lady will be full of joy opening the box. TFS!

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thanks so much, Jeannie. It seems the plush was a hit with everyone, so I feel confident it should be a hit with the young girl who receives it 😉. Yes, I crown you the iron on Queen! 👑😂. I don’t even know when I got the sunflower patch, but it seems as though I’ve had it forever. It’s just been hanging out, waiting for a sunflower box 😆.

[@batmansboxes4936]

@@byrdfeed9071 love it!! Maybe DT will come out with more pretty iron ons. Sane ones for a long while. They iron on well.

[@Kayla_Schumacher]

Beautiful theme!! What a cute stuffy and that T-shirt is adorable! I love the your memory of the kaleidoscope in your grandmother's toy chest. So sweet! 💛🌻

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thanks, Kayla! I think the stuffie and T-shirt are my favorites, too. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. 🥰

[@byrdfeed9071]

[@ששבריבוע]

Very fun box :) :) 🌻 my favs are the stuffy and the puzzle :)

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thanks, Math. Gotta love the stuffy🌻 ❤️

[@melanievogt9976]

What a beautiful box! I believe this little girl will have a new found love for flowers. Thanks for sharing.

[@byrdfeed9071]

Yes, I hope she does! I love flowers! 🌺

[@valswain]

Wow! Where do I start. The box itself is so beautifully decorated. That plushie! It’s the cutest one I have seen. Yay Five Below. You included the cutest pages in the coloring book. Where did you find all those? The artificial sunflower left over from your wreath is the perfect touch for the box. I just love the colors in the shirt and the matching hair accessories. Oh my, you found so many cute things with sunflowers! The tote you made is beautiful 🥰 I think this is my new favorite box of yours. Thanks so much for sharing it.

[@byrdfeed9071]

Oh, thank you, Val. The funny thing is, I originally had a different stuffie for this box. It was one of those big, TY Beanie Buddy bears to which I had attached one of the little sunflower hair clips to the bow around his neck. He looked so adorable it was hard to nix him, but I just couldn’t resist the flower from Five Below. I think it is the cutest I have ever seen, too. Most of the coloring pages I found on a site called wonder-day and a few on iHeartCraftyThings. Thank you sweet friend 🥰

[@ivetteguadalupe1324]

Wow 😮is amazing to be a blessing for others may the Lord always bless you and give much more ti share with the children is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️🤩

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thank you, Ivette 🥰

[@RachelP-tn6rm]

That stuffed flower is so adorable!

[@byrdfeed9071]

Isn’t it, though? I couldn’t leave Five Below without it. It makes the box so happy 😊

[@wonderyears2000]

Such a beautiful box! I love all the handmade items!! 🌻

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thank you. I appreciate that 🥰

[@elena-n5q]

What a great shoebox! The makeup bag, the hair accessories and the jewelry are wonderful gifts. I also really like the fabric you used to sew the drawstring bag.

[@byrdfeed9071]

Thanks, Elena. Those are some of my favorite gifts to send to the girls 🥰
