I decided to start with a plain canvas so I used plain silver and gold wrapping paper for this. It shows off the decorations very well. But, it also shows every nook and cranny. I also used the traditional cheapie bows...well, for a little something traditional. I made my own gift tags so that everything would coordinate. The floral sprays are great to use for packages because they're very budget friendly and you get so much to use on packages. For these examples, I only used very little of the actual spray. Just glue them to a package underneath the ribbon.I already had these great glitter letters. They come in a large pack which may cover your whole family if your first names don't all begin with the same letter (like David AND Dave)...Or use them for the first initial on a gift tag (that's my present with the M!).
Have your wrapped all your gifts yet? Only 6 days left! Happy wrapping!
Gorgeous! I love a beautifully wrapped gifts. Truthfully, I most enjoy seeing all the presents wrapped and waiting for Christmas. That's more fun for me than opening them.
ReplyDeleteMe too, I agree! I love seeing them around the tree.
ReplyDeletegorgeous michelle. i wonder what's in the pressies? they look so exciting! x
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get that gorgeous glittery dotted ribbon?!?!
ReplyDeleteYour wrapping is so fun and beautiful! I wish I could be fun, but I don"t stray too far from the craft paper. Hm, I am thinking I could use some of your glitter elements to jazz up my wrapping. That's an idea.
ReplyDeleteSorry to read about your lost ornaments :( Your whole journey to purchase new ones had me chuckling.
Say, your dad is one lucky dude. Those goodie baskets were awesome. (My dad is diabetic, too.) Hope he's mending well.
Thanks Leah! I know what's in a few of them, but one of them is for me. :-) David wrapped it though!
ReplyDeleteRebecca-I got it from Michael's! 60% off in the Christmas ribbon section!
Thanks inspiration! I love craft paper too. It would look very pretty with some extra sparklies. Hehe, that's ok, I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was meant that way and not as a woe is me. :-) And he's doing pretty good! Apparently he was driving yesterday...umm....I don't know about that.
Where's the one that says "Cari" ?????
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous! I am totally in awe of everyone's wrapping skills, or even interest in the process!I love the glitter letters SO MUCH!
ReplyDeleteHow did your dad like his basket? Good daughter!
