Default HELP! I need your ideas!

Please help me send off a dear friend and a great client of mine with a cute paint can idea. She will be moving to Reno, Nevada and I would love to send her off with a cute decorated paint can filled with cute and clever goodies. Please, I need all of your wonderful ideas.
Thanks in advance
Jodie

what about making her some "we've moved" cards adding a pack of stamps and putting those in the can. Maybe preprint some address labels and stamp a cute image on the side of them.
A stamped candle and a box of matches for her new home, maybe a few pieces of her favorite candy.

If I can think of anything else, I'll post again.

Thanks for the ideas, my dilema is that she already purchased a moving stamp set and made cards and labels. I like the postage stamp idea!
Thanks

Is your friend into stamping or scrapbooking? What are her interests? You could decorate a paint can around something like that. Or, if you've known her a long time and have had lots of fun times together, tuck into the paint can things that will remind her of your fun times. Movie ticket stubs, products from a particular coffee shop if you like to meet her there, her favorite toiletries or candy or fingernail polish color - whatever speaks of your friendship with each other and her favorite things. And homemade cards so that you can keep in touch!

Do you and her run in the same circle of friends? If so, you could have each person make a 6x6 scrapbook page for her and put them all in a book... People could do pages about things they love to do together, neat places in town, funny memories, etc.

A mini album with pictures of your adventures together would be great too. Love the return address labels idea - who can't use those.
