NO SANTAS

11 . 12 . 14

Who says that Christmas presents have to look like Christmas? Maybe you revel in the classic Christmas icons, and if you do that’s great! But if you are like me, bells and Christmas trees and santas might start to seem a little mundane.

I have a joy in just making each present as beautiful as it can be, whether that be covered in twinkly stars or blooming flowers. It is fun to be creative and find spins on the classic Christmas wrapping job, to wrap a different kind present, one that is lush and botanical. In frosty cold winter give a bit of color of spring, warm evenings, and leafy gardens.

Use beautiful paper, be generous with the ribbon, and garnish with botanical bits



Here I used flowery leaves wrapping paper , blue denim ribbon and dried flowers. Make your presents stick out under the tree, wrap outside the box, and make them beautiful. Decorate them with the receiver in mind. Let your holiday wrapping be different, creative and pretty!


HOLIDAY NOTES

10 . 21 . 14

Sometimes I long for that seemingly forgotten day when hand-written correspondence meandered through a lethargic postal system, connecting one separated friend to another. In those times of pining, a general post to all of my friends simply doesn’t express anything of what my heart is struggling to say.

That’s why I’ve created a series of beautiful-to-behold and wonderful-to-grasp notecards, each of which is perfectly suited for that curious anachronism called mail. I’d love to share them with you, so that you too can express your thoughts, notions and be-wonderments to those special few someones to whom a random post just won’t suffice.

Nothing compares to a hand-written note in the mail. Nothing delivers a hand-writting note like one of these beautiful cards.
