Brown paper packages all tied up with string...


... these are a few of my favorite things!!  Tee-hee! 
Mornin' hens!!  I thought I'd show you how I wrapped Lil' Chick's birthday presents.  I do love to wrap gifts (uh, that is unless there are tons of them, then NOT SO MUCH!)  Aren't they pretty?  You all know how much I love kraft paper, so why not use it for wrapping too, right?  


I alternated using burlap, lace, raffia, ribbon and even twine.  


I picked up a few fall flower bunches at Michaels and hot glued one on each package for a little pop of color!

 


I made each gift tag using my Mac and printer. then I die cut them out using a tag die. 


I also used doilies on a few of the packages.  This always adds a little country charm to a package, don't ya think?





Ok, that's it for me today!  I hope this gave you some inspiration for your next wrapping project, or maybe even Christmas!  It's never too early to start on Christmas!  LOL!  
Have a great day!  {{{hen hugs}}}

  3. WOW what a lucky girl Little Chick is. Look at ALL those pretty packages. Far to pretty to unwrap! (O.K. maybe not ;) but I would just save the pretties for another crafty project.) Lovely, lovely.
