packages …

January 27, 2012

i realized i never shared my packaging from christmas this year.
i really enjoy putting together a nice package.  unfortunately, i run out of time to do it most of the time, but it is still fun to put together a nicely wrapped gift when i can find the time.

i’m a big fan of the doily.  it is simple, and adds a nice little touch, without taking up too much time.

 i also am in love with glitter.  so, these little glitter ornaments i found last year on clearance were perfect!  i think it added a nice kate spade-y touch!

i put together these fun name banner packages for my nieces for christmas using the celebrate alphabet kit from lifestyle crafts.  it is a pretty fun one, since you can cut out and spell anything!

i also customized this fringy gift for my niece with her name on it using the manhattan alphabet mini set from lifestyle crafts.  very fun!

and, there you have it!

some fun little packages!

goodie packaging …

December 22, 2010

here’s a few more goodie packages i put together.
i loved using some pretty yarn, doilies, and ornaments with tiny tags.

i got these clear plastic boxes from paper mart.

and, remember the chocolate covered cinnamon santa’s i made?
i put a few in a glassine bag, and topped it with a felt ornament, a doily, a tag and bakers twine.

tomorrow, i’m going to share another fun holiday treat we made, as well as the packaging!
are you sick of my packaging and goodie posts yet?
