Inspiration - gift wrapping

Monday, 17 November 2014

I think after last weekends fun at Liberty, its safe to say I have been bitten by the Christmas bug and all I want to do is only make Christmas inspired things. One of my favourite parts of Christmas is gift wrapping, the thought of spending hours wrapping gifts gets me seriously excited (I wish I was joking). 

This year I'm inspired by mixing prints, pattern and textures. I'll probably make some more of these fabric bags to put handmade pieces in. Using up the last bits of wrapping paper from my stash is high on my agenda so I'll be making patchwork presents mixed with brown paper and and maybe a print to tie everything together. I love the idea of making tassels and embellishments to add to the front of gifts, I'm not sure what I'll make yet, I'm currently thinking a few pouffy corsages with leather mixed in..? Ahhh, there are so many idea's to try! 

Am I completely mad or do you start planning the wrapping before the gift buying has even commenced too?! 

You can find past Christmas wrapping posts here and here
