wrap

wrap
wrap is simple this year: kraft paper, baker’s twine, tags made with ledger paper.

i’m just not finding the time to get everything done that i want to get done before xmas. the gifts are wrapped, but the cards have not been sent. gifts to go overseas have not been packaged up. yummy goodies are only ingredients on a shopping list. hopefully this weekend i will get caught up!

happy weekend!

    I’m with you – I am SO behind on my holiday preparations. I just sent out the first batch of cards yesterday, and still have a few gifts to buy/make/send. So my weekend is shaping out to be a flurry of making and baking and wrapping and shipping! Hope you have a lovely + productive weekend. :)

    kraft paper & baker’s twine are my favourite combo too – and I love the ledger tags!

    Best of luck this weekend

    With this cold I feel behind too. But instead of doing something about it during my hour alone at home this morning I’m reading blogs. Bad me!

    I love simple packages! Those are very pretty. I’m behind, too, but the weekend is full of promise.

    Kraft paper is my favourite wrapping paper. It’s such a perfect basic that can be dressed up with pretty accessories :) I do love your tags.

    I think simple is better. Im using craft paper too… “wood paper (papel madera)” is called here. And adding some handmade paper roses. Simple…

    I bloody love that wrapping style, well industrial in a refined sort of way, if you know what I mean. back to basics with class, hun.

    oh well, things to do. downsizing is the word (I swear by it and end up doing sod all in the end ;)
    but, back to you, did you get lots done, then?

    This is my favorite wrapping as well! We go to the hardware store and buy a HUGE roll of brown paper once every 3 years :)
