Eid Cards: Send your greetings the traditional way!
Writing cards has its own appeal when sending greetings to your loved ones on special occasions. You cannot put a text message on your fridge to look at and get the joy from it -right? Eid cards are a tradition to send to family and friends at the time of the blessed celebration. Themed Eid cards bring and make memories. These beautiful cards are created by Harts & Crafts by Sanna.
Scarlet Scroll Studio has made these stunning Eid card and envelopes that you can use to mail or hand in your Eidis and messages. Beautiful colors and pattern – so specific to Eid!!
Eid is for kids! Eid to Bachoon ki hoti hai!
No matter how much joy we get out of Eid as adults, the main focus of this occasion is kids. This is truer for those of us living abroad – we extend the celebration to make sure our children feel the spirit. Eidi is one of the most anticipated present of all times among Muslim children. The gifts have their own charm but Eidi in form of currency brings the joy in its best on the kids’ faces from those who can recognize dollar bills to teenagers who love to “own” some money to feel independent! My kids absolutely love this! So if you have been putting your Eidi in boring white envelopes, here are some awesome baggies that can bring double joy and color (and pattern) to this happy occasion. These ones are done by Crafty Shiro.
Two Craftistas – a shop run by mother and daughter have this fun Eidi sacks. You can get your kids these baggies with Eidi printed on it to keep all their Eidi money. These can be customized for the child’s name as well!
Talking about little ones – Eid is a special occasion for the new additions in the family. These specialy cute shirts are made by Tiny Muslim! Who wouldn’t look cute in these!
And look at these super cute these little onesies!! Absolutely adorable and creative products by Jasmine + Marigold.
You can find these customized bibs and onesis at Two Craftistas.
Wrapping Papers! Make gifts more festive!
Presenting a gift according to the occassion makes the gift much more special – choose from these festive wrapping papers at With A Spin.
Share the Joy! Spread the spirit!
Living in the US, where we share so many holidays from different religions, Eid for Muslims is best time to spread the joy and message of peace to neighbors and colleagues. I absolutely love this candy bouquet by Memorable Creations. You can give the full bouquet and leave it in the common lounge at work place or present it to neighbor. The individual candies make also great gifts should you fancy giving it to teachers in school or colleagues at work.
Hajj Mubarak! The heart of this Eid!
This Eid is special in its own way since Hajjis are leaving and upon return, the parties are thrown and gifts are exchanged! So many cute ideas to make people feel special when they depart for and come back from the pilgrimage. This funtional gift kit of toiletries and the wudu pal is available at With A Spin – a must for travelers!
This Hajj journal by Harts & Crafts by Sanna in gold and black with a book mark makes a great gift for your loved ones leaving for Hajj!
Eid Decor! Decorating for Eid is so much fun!
Besides picking presents to give to our loved one, aother important planning of Eid is to adorn the home just for Eid and Eid party. Some of these vendors have gone above and beyond in producing these awesome décor items. I really like the beautiful colors in the two backdrops created by Picket Fence Arts.
