With Easter almost upon us I have spent the past few days finishing a few last minute gifts. Just need to make a few Easter gift cards and then I can package up my goodies.
I don’t know if you share my interest but I’ve always loved wrapping gifts and making cards. Would you believe, once a long time ago (almost in another lifetime – before children), I was working as a Visual Merchandiser for Myer and one of our managers in a flash of inspiration decided we needed a gift wrapping service during our Christmas rush. At such short notice it fell to the VM girls to man the gift wrapping service and I remember my boss being so apologetic. Clearly he thought it was definitely not in our job description but truly, I couldn’t have been happier. Actually, I couldn’t believe I was being paid to wrap other peoples gifts… I was in gift wrapping heaven especially with an unlimited supply of paper and beautiful wide ribbons – who wouldn’t be???

That bunny and the hearts are just adorable. I’m sadly lacking in the Easter decorations! I think I’ll have to stock up for next year!
Best wishes,

Had to laugh at your gift wrapping story. I have to do a bit at where I work now and I dont mind it except that the people who purchase the gift stand there and stare at you while you are doing it. Makes me very nervous!

PS. you are quite welcome to grab a copy of the rose pic but you have to show me any paintings you create from it :0)

Happy Easter to you and your precious family. I love all your new creations, the hearts are especially beautiful. I love the idea of being paid to wrap prezzies! I still laugh that I get paid to work in a fabric shop 🙂

I must admitt I hate Gift wrapping, even if I was paid to do it, I still don’t like it. My daughter loves it and volunteers at work and at home to wrap anything in sight.
I’m so glad you were able to walk along the beach, we were doing the same on the same day, but were around the corner at Mt. Martha beach with Guss, it was a beautiful day.
Love your new creations – you are so clever!!
