The Gift Wrap Extravaganza................Bright Pinks



Andrea of the blog French Basketeer sent me a photo of a lavender and pink cadeau that is on it's way to me just because I am a lucky girl.........how lovely to cushion this cadeaux in bright pink tulle. A stylish way to cushion your shipped gifts but Andrea always surprises me with her atterntion to detail. She even includes a Bouquet Garni to fragrance the gift experience. I love her authentic French baskets and totes and always enjoy reading her blog where she entertains in great style. It arrived this morning and the pink tulle is a fabulous idea. There is alot to be said for unexpected and surprise gifts. 


London-based blogger Carole of the blog Mademoiselle Poirot wraps the most charming gifts. Precious presents or pressies as they call them in the UK. You can go here to see all her wrapping this week. 



This fashionable and impressive purse gift is easier than it looks and so worth the time. You can see the tutorial here. 



Gold tinsel and pink tissue is wrapped together in bright style here.


I am beginning to think I need to learn knitting so I can do all these clever yarn adorned gifts. This popular gift wrapped technique can be found at Crafty Minx. Isn't it delightful?

    What a lovely presentation from Andrea!
    All of these are lovely. The simple paper with the gold ribbon and pink ruffled crepe paper is also quite pretty.

    Thanks so much for including me here Sande, I really appreciate it. I only wish I'd seen that little purse before I sent the gifts to my niece ;-) A great selection of gift wrapping looks. Love from London xo
