New Blog and Nature inspired gift wrapping

Hello and welcome to my new blog! I've been holding off it's debut for when I had more time and since I'm sick and can't sleep (or breathe), I figured I'd start blogging here. I'm really excited for this blog and have lots of plans for it. It'll be a place where I can share everything that inspires me plus glimpses of what I'm up to, for posterity sakes. Is everyone done Christmas shopping? How about wrapping? I saw these images and completely fell in love with the "natural" feel of the gift wrapping. Simple, yet beautiful. Take a look:


Beautiful right? I think I might use this as inspiration for next year's Christmas tree.
