A gorgeous soap gets ribbon-wrapped in two colours of hand-dyed silk.
I have come to love this Blue Bird gift wrap paper the more I work with it. That is often the case, like many things it just takes time to reveal it's better nature. This soft green background can handle any colour direction of ribbon and as I write this I see another colour I want to try..........right now. This is one of the Wrap Room papers you'll be able to buy. You'll have lovely ribbon choices and embellishments too. Like little bird nests.
I found a little teal bird all dressed up in velvet last weekend when I was cleaning my storage room and it chirped to my attention today. I had intended on trying a brown ribbon but it looked a bit dull to tell you the truth, so teal it became along with a teal sheer ribbon working as it's nest. I think this bird is a little overdressed for the paper, but this type of experimenting tells me that the embellishment will work, it just needs to dress down a bit...... perhaps a little brown bird sitting in a nest? Yes, that's it.
Such a pretty pattern to make desk chores more uplifting.

i adore birds in decor...(i have a ton i use on my xmas tree)...using them in wrapping is a wonderful idea...your gift is beautiful.. so well coordinated, but not too matchy-matchy. the sheer ribbon you chose for the "nest" was absolutely perfect! love it!!

ReplyDeleteOh Sande!!!! I am captivated! :) This is amazingly beautiful. How can one person have soooo much talent!?! You are fabulous. I am enraptured by that little bird. His color, his feathers, his coquettish little stance! He's gorgeous. I am a huge fan of birds and feathers (although I don't know if I would ever own one)and this takes the cake!!! Thanks for sharing! That's a lucky one to recieve this package!

In my opinion, birds are always a sign of good news and wrapping up your gift with this paper will always double positive emotions, associated with expecting the thing you want.
ReplyDeleteI see you got a lot of experience in all these decoration colors and pictures. Are there any courses on decoration and colour matching?
