I'm sure I could do it easier ways, just stuffing things into gift bags or using the closest Santa themed paper.
But this is my one time a year to show of any ounce of creativity I can muster. So I search through stores until I find the "perfect" wrapping paper. And then, I have to find ribbon and other accessories to make the perfect gift into a holiday work of ark.
This year's design:
(I wish that the scan had turned out better). This shiny paper lead to my color scheme this year: red and black. So my presents have this beautiful black on red bird pattern, wrapped with black satin ribbons. Fan-ta-stic!
The combination with the holly berries (picked up for a dime a piece at a pre-Christmas sale) with quite striking. A modern look, while still maintaining a very classic holiday look.
I'm quite proud of the final look. Who wouldn't want to open this?
What a beautiful presentation. You have a good eye for style.
