Okay my valentines folks, how are the plans coming?
To be perfectly honest, I haven’t followed through with last week’s post and decorated the house yet since last week was a bit of a write off. But don’t worry I’ll get to it! But if you’re more organized and a better person than me perhaps you’re ready for the next step:
PACKAGING!!!!!!!!!!
I find this part so fun! There’s so many ways you can wrap up your gifts and package up those lovely sweets for your sweetie. I want to try all these different wrap up tricks because they’re all just so adorable! But alas I’m a sucker for continuity and prefer to stick to one look.
If you try any of these out perhaps you’d like to show me?
Twig and Thistle: This has been going around all over the internets for two simple reasons – it’s free and BEAUTIFUL. All you need are paper bags and a good printer! Now you can also use this as inspiration and, instead of printing it out, grab some stamps and red ink and have at ‘er!
From Pinterest: Grab some wax paper, stamp and wrap away!
Paper Source: A tutorial with yet another freebie, this adorable fox box is a great way to give your valentine and friends some lovely treats.
The Party Studio: Paper bags, border punchers, twine, stamps and mail tags. Voila.
These ideas are wonderful! I absolutely love great packaging. Such great inspiration for Valentine gifts!
Packaging makes such a difference doesn’t it? I always love hearing “It’s wrapped so prettily, I don’t want to open it!”. That reaction is my goal when it comes to wrapping things up 😉
I love the stamped wax paper. That’s how I’m going to wrap all my packages from now on!
