gift wrapping #2

Lenny's wedding gift

Lenny and Eddie are both very special to me. Well len's just that one person I've learnt from a lot, the best thing I would say about her is her strength of charater! Well Eddie I think Lenny and almost everyone knows why your so special to me!


Well len when you were about to have the most perfect wedding I had to make sure I gave you the best looking gift too! Of course I'm the best at gift packing, but I've never made a bow. So I sat for a really long time staring a YouTube videos to make sure it comes right. I know some would call it messed up, but I'm bored of the same old cliché bow n you have to admit the fat bow is kinda cute.




I know the purple packaging and gold stars makes it look like a packet jumped out of Hogwarts but honestly that just randomly came together like that. I was just trying to look like me, I guess! when randomly contrasting things come together they make something happy.

gift wrapping #1


Gifts are tricky things. My objective of gifting is mostly to give the recipient a reason to smile. Gift wrapping is my personal muse. That is why the wrapping of gifts to me, is just as important the gift itself. The first sight of the gift should make you wonder what could possibly be inside the box, I try to wrap it in such a way that the task of unwrapping the gift also evokes the same excitement it took to wrap it.
I won't say this was the best gift wrapping I've done but considering I took only 2 mins to come up with it and 10 to finish, it makes it a fairly decent effort. (FYI I made it for my dad's secret Santa game at work).
