Christmas Presents

Hello my friends!

I must apologize for my absence- I have been extremely busy these last few days. In between doing some Christmas shopping, wrapping presents and make a gazillion cards, I haven’t had the energy to blog. Like I mentioned before, I’m going through some major Winter blues this year, so I’m dealing with that along with the busyness and also fighting a sickness bug. {yuck!}
Don’t have a card today, but I do have some of the presents I have wrapped lately. Oh my goodness, I just LOVE this wrapping paper! It has red, aqua, light green and olive green along with some white in there. Isn’t it amazing?! I’m so sad that I don’t have enough to wrap all of my presents. :( You may notice some of holly gift tags on the presents- I had so many leftover from the craft fair! I thought they added a nice touch….
I promised a list of what I brought to the craft fair and also what sold. Well, here is the list. {hopefully it’ll help those who plan to participate in future fairs}
  • decorated post it note covers- made 36, sold 10
  • decorated notepads- made 34, sold 22
  • gift tags- made 115, sold 60
  • decorated candy boxes- made 30, sold 4
  • decorated paperclip bookmarks- made 140, sold 70
  • cards- brought approximately 100, sold 25
Have any of you done a craft fair before? If so, what were your best sellers? I’m still debating on whether I want to do any in the future….if I did, I would definitely not spend so much time stressing and debating on what to make. :) 

In closing, here are the presents that my little brother wrapped and put under the tree for me. You’ll see that it’s Star Wars wrapping paper {both of my brothers are obsessed!}. Did you notice the light pink grosgrain ribbon on the top, and the little scalloped circle he used as a gift tag? Such a cutie pie….I love him to death!

  6. You are too cute! Also, thanks for my gift. I stared in amazement at the adorableness of it, and then asked Ginny if I should take a photo. Thankfully, she’d already done it. Yay!
