This wrapping idea was 100 percent inspired by pie. That’s totally normal, right? I made a pretty lattice pie crust at Thanksgiving this year, and I’ve been jonesing for a repeat ever since. Of course, ribbon isn’t nearly as delicious as a butter-flour-sugar combo, but the process was nearly identical.
It’s Wrapping Week 2016, Y’all!
Happy almost Christmas! Are your cookies baked? Gifts ordered? Everything wrapped?!? I’ve been counting the days until Beany’s school break, and now that it’s finally here, we’re in full-on Christmas mode. Woo hoo! Both kids are super duper excited, making gifts, constructing (and deconstructing) gingerbread houses and writing letters. They’ve visited with Santa twice this…
Happy Halloween from the Pink Bunny Flower Princess and Captain America!
Happy Halloween from the Pink Bunny Flower Princess and Captain America! These two are beyond excited for a night of spooky fun and way too much candy. Per her usual, Beany picked a costume this year that’s as pink as it is personalized. Actually, the pink faux fur vest was the inspiration behind the whole ensemble….
Paper Straw Stars
It’s the final day of Wrapping Week 2015! Are your presents looking snazzy yet? I love this last wrapping idea because you don’t need glue or tape to make it happen — just string and straws and some mad cool folding skills. These paper straw stars look super cute atop a package, but they’re just as…
Chalk Marker Wrapping Paper
This chalk marker wrapping paper is the easiest of all and perfect if you only have minutes before running out the door. Grab some plain wrapping paper, a chalk marker and a dot of paint, and freehand something festive!
Cupcake Trees
There are so many fun things already around your house that you can use to wrap presents, and I think these cupcake trees are a fun example of that. Cupcake liners, paper straws and baker’s string — that’s all you need!
Paint and Sharpie Trees
For the past year, pretty much any painting Beany does turns into some version of pink on pink. We have pink landscapes, pink rainbows and lots and lots of pink girls. This calls for a steady stream of pink paint, of course, because a proper pink painting requires varying shades. According to the master, “Pink…
It’s Wrapping Week 2015!
The halls are decked, and the house smells like gingerbread, which can only mean one thing: It’s Christmastime! And if you’re still trying to decide how to dazzle your giftees with fun and festive packaging, have no fear because today marks the start of Wrapping Week 2015. That means five new wrapping ideas, five days…
DIY Painted Wooden Letters
It’s DIY time, you guys! Jared was at a conference last week for work, so that meant I had two kids in need of distractions. Thankfully, their grandma was here for a visit, but even grandmas need breaks (have you tried sitting on the floor for three hours playing Legos? Ooph!). We rolled into Target in…
Colorful Indoor Garden Craft for Kids
Around Christmastime we made an IKEA run and, per our usual, came home with a unique smattering of items: festive chair cushions, drawers for under Beany’s bed, a few packs of batteries and a gigantic roll of paper designed for an easel we still don’t own. The cushions were fun through the holidays, the drawers are great toy storage…
