I’ve got the Holidays all Wrapped Up!

Mrs. Clause has been very busy wrapping gifts for the holidays… stylish parties require stylish gifts!!!! Right?

These little rolls are my new favorite wrapping technique because you can make your own box. It seems I never have a cute box for all the “finds” I pick up for my friends and family! From cute little gifts I find at Filoli or something found at an estate sale or an antique store… I always need a cute box to wrap it up in. Here’s how to make it…

Just roll a piece of cardboard.

Wrap it in tissue and tie off the ends with ribbon.

Cut a piece of fabric (I had some velvet left from a chair I reupholstered) Glue it to the roll.

Glue gun ribbon to finish the edges. Add buttons, jewels or stickers to embellish.

Fringe the ends and your done!

Linda and Hector from lulu Pom did an amazing job decorating for this fabulous party!

And Linda even made her famous French Onion Soup (go to my recipe section)!

Such a beautiful evening!!!!
