Getting Into Gift Wrapping

Recently I have been highly enthralled by all things wrapping and gift. (In fact, I have already started Christmas shopping/wrapping!) I love a simple wrap, something subtle with just a hint of color, an awesome pattern or a badass topper.

In hindsight, this is something I should have paid more attention to during my wedding. I wasn't unhappy with the way my jam jars were wrapped, but there are just so many different things I could have done. (Like put the jam in craft boxes and wrapped each of those up, stamp those with our monogram stamp and a cute little topper.....just thinking off the top of my head) To get my fix, I have been loving unique ways to wrap just about anything I can get my hands on!

Unfortunately kraft paper has been used time and time again, and as gorgie as it is, it is time for me to move on to something just as awesome. I have about 10 showers and birthday's happening in the next few months, so I am going to practice making my own wrapping paper and hopefully I will get good enough by the time Christmas rolls around.

I love a simple sewn detail! This might just be my favorite of the bunch, however I must confess that I am horrible at sewing paper!

I'll probably do all of these and a whole bunch more in the next few months. Which should I try first??
