How do you wrap your presents?
As an Artist, and a person, I usually find materials that I know will mean something to the person you're giving your present to.
Take this for example:
When my daughter had her Graduation, I actually kept the special paper wrap on the bouquets that she received.
They were large, so I kept each paper wraps.
I just met a new friend, and he is leaving for Tanzania. 😊
I wrapped his going away present in one of those bouquet paper wraps. I chose a light cream colored paper with cut strips. I thought he would appreciate that, since he is a fellow artist. 😊
I used a local rustic string called Abaca fiber.
We also met on that day where I joined a Flower Crown making contest. The flowers have all dried up already, but I still kept the crown. I cut some Baby's Breath and a flower and tied it up with the string.
Everything that I used had significance to me, and the day our friendship started. 😊
Result? He really appreciated.
So, if you're a hoarder of art materials like me, don't throw things that you think might be useful in the future. 😁
