When I found the advent countdown tags @ simpleasthatblog.com.

 

I knew they were perfect for gift I had in mind for my little neighbor. I think my tags came out great using the numbers from her blog.

Happy Birthday!

Birthday gifts for my friend Val. Honey made the crate with wood from a pallet. I love the distressed nail holes. It came out fabulous. I filled it with crafting goodies and a mason jar drinking glass. I had fun packaging it.

Teacher Appreciation Week

Gifts for my grandchildren to give to their teachers.

I bought one of the reusable cups and a gift card for each of them.

I put the gift cards in a drawstring bag from the $1.50 bins at Michaels.

I made a tag and packaged it all together.



New Craft Table

Honey did a beautiful job making a new table top from reclaimed wood.  I love how beautiful it turned out. I am a lucky woman.

My friend Valerie found this pretty ugly  worn cabinet door at the flea market. She knew I would love it so she picked it up and surprised me with it. After a little cleaning, sanding, painting and waxing, it has turned from Shab to Fab! Thanks Val!!

Mother's Day gift wrap

Happy Mother's Day

 

My mother's gift was rather large. I wrapped it in brown kraft paper and used tulle to make the roses. To make the leaves, I used tattered leaves die cut from Tim Holtz. I folded them and used brown ink at the creases. 

Pretty little cloche

Michaels had these pretty little cloches. They did not come with a base.

Not to worry. Honey to the rescue. Don't you just love the wooden bases

he turned for me. They are perfect for my little rusty oil cans.

 

Easter gifts for my co-workers.

Gift Cards

 

Sometimes giving a gift card seems impersonal. I think taking the time to present the gift card in a pretty package it makes it special.
