I like all styles of wrapping, I do like using plain brown paper though and then jazzing it up with a bit of colour. When I receive a nicely wrapped present I appreciate the care and attention put in, and I like to replicate this when I am giving presents. I am off to have another look at your ideas. xthis is my patchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02865567572989902864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8082891485735387579.post-77158137074375491892007-12-18T21:26:00.000-08:002007-12-18T21:26:00.000-08:00Yes, notebooks for favorite recipes is something t...Yes, notebooks for favorite recipes is something that I already have going. Plus a home journal a la FlyLady with a beautiful Brocante Home cover. Love it! I hadn't thought of a decorating one or an "idea" one. That would be terrific.<BR/><BR/>The shopping went on all day. My mother and I had a good time and finished up all of our shopping or really close to "all." I was too busy shopping to observe. I don't usually do a lot of "observing" but I sure do enjoy staring in blog windows. ;><BR/><BR/>Now it's well past midnight and I've got to get to bed.

I have even begun to make a special binder for recipes that I love. I think I will blog about that too...soon...<BR/><BR/><BR/>Judi.... yep... bags make the perfect wrap in a jif... just put in some nice tissue or other pretty paper and you can make it look like you fiddled too! <BR/><BR/>Kari & Kijsa .. can't lay claim to the golden packages in the pic...it is a magazine page from ...uhm.... too many years ago to count. But..it inspires each year and if I need or want a beautiful wrapping.... I have it to spur me onward.<BR/><BR/>thanks for stopping by Susan... glad u enjoyed your visit. Have a peek at my Picturetrail site if you want to see more little bears to make you smile. Check under needle felts for the type of bear sitting in the salad bowl. Pretty cheeky isn't he?BumbleVeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272892605379537233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8082891485735387579.post-63212346052822106862007-12-17T04:14:00.000-08:002007-12-17T04:14:00.000-08:00This is my first visit to your blog and I must say...This is my first visit to your blog and I must say it is charming.I see we both live in the great white north(that's what most of the south thinks anyways)After yesterday here I'd have to agree!<BR/>Your bears are delightful, that little one in the salad bowl caught my eye.<BR/>Can't wait to check out the cooking blog.They're great because there's no calories.<BR/>Hope to visit again soon, SusanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8082891485735387579.post-67698134482519891482007-12-16T18:04:00.000-08:002007-12-16T18:04:00.000-08:00Great ideas- brown paper is a wonderful started ca...Great ideas- brown paper is a wonderful started canvas, and your results are lovely! thanks for sharing such great ideas!<BR/><BR/>Merry Christmas blessings, <BR/>kari & kijsakari and kijsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01047434064728375340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8082891485735387579.post-55641545553576197382007-12-16T12:05:00.000-08:002007-12-16T12:05:00.000-08:00Gift bags, LOL, gift bags!
