Are You Ready? It's Time to Wrap It Up!

Hope you are ready for holiday gift giving! Have you wrapped all of your gifts?

If not you might consider some non-traditional ways to "wrap".

Consider cookie tins, tote bags, colorful shoe boxes or candy boxes as containers.

Or as alternatives to wrapping paper use fabric remnants, dinner napkins, glossy magazine pages, scrapbook paper scraps and newspapers.

Time to Wrap It Up!


Last minute goodies to wrap yourself and your gifts in style!

What alternatives to traditional wrapping do you use? I would love to hear about (and see photos) how you simplify the gift wrapping process.

Happy wrapping!
Enjoy!

How to Have More Exposure for Black Friday Sales

For those Etsy sellers who are planning special sales for Black Friday, you might be want to have your sale posted on Delightfullyperceptive's blog. I've included the link to her blog if you are interested. You have until Wednesday to convo her the details. Check it out and happy sales to you!

One thing that I enjoy about the Etsy community is that not only are there so many gifted and creative people but so many helpful and friendly fellow sellers. Thanks to all of you who are so generous and supportive.







This week I have been working on Thanksgiving cards as a way to express gratitude to people who have been kind, thoughtful and a blessing to know.

Remember to be grateful for even the smallest acts of kindness. Take the time during this season to thank the people around you, even if you have thanked them before. Let them know that they are appreciated.

One kind word can change somebody's day, which can in turn change someone else's.

Yellow/Green Autumn Leaves Photos


I love yellow and green together!
When I saw the leaves on this tree last week,
it made me think of argyle.
In my search for yellow and green argyle for this blog
I also came across a few other beautiful items
in marvelous shades of yellow and green.
