Wrap it in grey





I am not a huge fan of wrapping... don't get me wrong - I love it I am just not that good at it. My paper is never quite as tight as I would like it to be... or straight!  I thought these were so pretty though.  This year I am wrapping in white, green and natural.  Do you theme your papers under the tree?  My tree is pretty neutral so I can change my wrapping each year.  {We just picked up our tree last night- so it is not decorated just yet- hopefully I will get around to taking a few pictures to share}.  Getting in the Christmas spirit over here...

Absolutely!

Colors coordinate with the colored theme of the year, the mood of the room or the color of the moment!
Happy Holidays,

I totally theme my wrapping. I usually wrap in brown craft paper and change up the embellishments and ribbon theme every year.

Totally theme wrap! This year: tartan plaid paper + grosgrain ribbon. Love wrapping. :-) Merry, merry! xoxo

This year it's burlap with red, looks really festive. Love themes mix with fabric.

Beautiful wraping. I will absolutly get some grey paper and mix it with some old newspapers.

My wrapping is never quite perfect enough for me too; but I like to add little trinkets to the bows as a distraction to the mismatched corners. I look forward to using the metal doves I found at My Sparrow on my gifts this year, as well as bells, ornaments, and what ever else I can find in my craft closet. xo Samantha

I JUST LOVE THE PICTURES ON THIS SITE. THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL. THEY ARE A COMBINATION OF ROMANTIC, SOPHISTICATED AND ETHEREAL. I IMAGINE MY BREATH BEING TAKEN AWAY WALKING INTO A ROOM AS I TAKE IN THESE GORGEOUS DESIGNS.
