Gift Wrapping - aka. Getting my Pretty On!

Sometimes, to be honest, it all gets a little too boy-ish around here.

I'm a girly-kinda-girl.
But I have 2 boys. And a husband. And a boy dog.

So, I lurve getting my pretty on when it comes to wrapping gifts for friends - particularly friends of the female persuasion! The boys often join in in their own way - making their own cards for birthdays and other events (they actually made two awesome cards this day, but I was too obsessed with photographing these butterflies to record them ;)

Do you enjoy gift wrapping? x

Don't you just love the stuff that kids come up with in their own time?

Hug plans on being a Lego designer when he grows up :)
I think he might be onto something.
