Let the holiday wrapping begin.......






I feel like a Christmas elf early this year...................wrapping, wrapping, and more wrapping. 
Gone to get my scissors sharpened and our Christmas tree.
Our son will be home on Friday....................let the holidays begin.

    I wrapped all last night...I could barely move when I was done. I'm using all silvers and golds this year. I love that brown ribbon!

    Dearest Sande,

    Love the thick satin ribbon you show here... to run your hand through and dream of luxury!
    What a joy for having your son coming home, that's so special for this time of year.
    A propos, I wanted to ask you if your baby-sister did ever visit you in your lovely home? Remembering just that you stated for both the time frame of 11 years ago... Let's hope she did!
    This time of the year is also about memories! Memories in silver and gold but forever.

    Lots of love,

    I just bought some gorgeous chocolate and burnt tangerine satin ribbon yesterday. People were looking at me like .....What??

    One girl asked, for x-mas???

    I replied; why yes, it matches my decor and are 2 of my fav colors.....they had never considered alternatives of red & green.

    LOVE the brown with the silver. I tried to find wide brown satin ribbon this year to no avail - your presents under the tree must look incredible!!
