wrapping paper
I played with white butcher paper and acrylic paint to make wrapping paper for the holidays. I fastened the gifts with japanese masking tape to add a pop of color. I tied a few of the boxes with hemp and made tags from scraps of gray board.
I'm thinking about making more wrapping paper and selling it in my shop.
What do you guys think?

buy handmade
With the help of artists and designers, Poppytalk compiled a list of 101 Reasons to Buy Handmade.
It's definitely worth checking out!
#17:
"Giving handmade is truly the essence of gift-giving. When you give a friend or loved one a gift, you are really saying "I care about you." A handmade gift conveys so much more than something pulled off the end-cap display of a mega store. Of course there are the obvious economic benefits of supporting independent makers and artists, but buying and giving handmade is, at heart, a loving act."
Cassie, Clementine Jewelry
Encourage your loved ones to purchase handcrafted gifts...especially if the gifts are for you. ;)
PS: Congratulations to Eva & Kirk Jorgensen of Sycamore Street Press on the arrival of their beautiful baby girl, Ingrid May!

When I was a teenager one of my responsibilities was wrapping all of the christmas gifts. My Mom would box up each gift and label it with the recipients name. I would sit on the floor in the living room and spend hours wrapping. Needless to say my gift wrapping skills are top notch.
Here are some lovely gift wrap ideas featured in Gifted and Sweet Paul.
Peruse Gifted Magazine for awesome gift guides and decor ideas.
Flip through Sweet Paul Magazine for delicious recipes and crafty projects.
Happy wrapping!
