Sweet Surprises

This weekend we're off to Dylan's homeland, so I arose early this morning in order to get this package in the mail and on its way.  I wanted to quick share this simple but thoughtful wrapping technique!  Take a paper lunch sack as the main wrapping agent.  Use string (or whatever you have lying around) and tie.  Use a button, or vintage key, or pom pom, and use that as your bow "centerpiece".  Draw a small icon in the area under where you will place an envelope with card (i found these great miniature envelopes from muji).  Now, when your opener moves the card, they are pleasantly surprised by what they find.  And the actual gift isn't half bad either!
