Creative Gift Packaging



I am so glad I had Cellophane wrap, baskets and ribbons to spruce up my gifts for Mom's birthday and Mother's Day gifts this past week. They made a great big difference to the gifts they contained and a real difference to my Mum. The Kalanchoe Plant I bought looked really nice wrapped up in shiny cellophane wrap with a gold ribbon at the top and my basket of creams and lotions looked so heavenly, Mum said she is not opening it until her other creams are all used up as she'd like to enjoy the gift basket as it is.



It is the thought and the way that gifts are presented
that counts and not just the gift itself, I love using
my creativity in this way as it makes the person
receiving the gift feel really special.

  7. Happy Birthday Doreen,
    I must agree with you ... things do seem to look far more lovely in clear cello bags! I used one for my soap in a french fry box hostess gift!

    Enjoy your day, I come to peek every now and then! Hugs ~A
