It's all about the presentation....

Isn't it so much more fun to open a gift when it has homemade
wrap or card or tag?  I'm all about the presentation of something.
It's almost more important to me than the gift. ha ha

Today the girls ideas are going to make you want to have a wrapping day!
Start a fire, play some festive music and wrap to your
hearts content.

Mini Candy Boxes
by: Mireille Divjak
 "starting point is the bathroom.. for real.. and saving those toilet paper rolls
 pretty paper & a little ribbon,
 a beautiful flower
 and you're ready to go. Glue the paper to the roll, fold the edges so it closes 
(after filling it with some candy) Tie a ribbon around it and adhere your flower. 
That's it. Fun to make, maybe with your kids. I made these with my daughter as a gift 
for her teachers."
