Handmade Gift Box

I must confess that we have been stinging quite a bit on gift wrapping this season

Dec 124_1

As if to rid the permanent mountain of junk sitting in the kitchen

we are busy churning out gift boxes from our glorious collection

 

So if you will to find your present wrapped in a gift box

which looks more like a cross between a cornflake box and a tissue box

PLEASE DON”T HATE US

    This year I am also not wrapping gifts. I have decided to put them in paper bags that I have collected and just put them in there!

    But put loads of cello on the top so that it does not take away the joy of ‘unwrapping’ ya!

    I think your action is great!

    Rachel : Hey Ann, that sounds like a good idea too!

  3. hey! I would rather have your handmade box then those traditional wrappers man!

    Rachel : hey angeline, I love the boxes, but I wasn’t sure how the recipient will feel. thanks for your reassurance :)

    anyway, I personally appreciate handmade stuff … AND the ‘time and effort’ the ‘creator’ put into it!
