It's begining to look a lot like Christmas!!!

We had our first snow of the season last night, so I got to wake up to this:




And quickly decided to brush the snow off my car and venture out to do a little Christmas shopping.
I love Christmas.  I love shopping.  But I really, really, love.....wrapping presents.
Last week I won this cute little stocking via 'Oh Apostrophe' (Thanks Again!) and loved the unexpected blue and bright green as 'Christmas' colors.



So, I decided to incorporate those colors into our Christmas wrapping this year.
Our bright and cheery Christmas palette:




...and it's begining to look a lot like Christmas! Round one of presents have been wrapped, bowed, tagged and placed under our tree.


Our tree is a little scraggly, but she was homegrown, and free :)


Whenever I say I LOVE wrapping presents people always look at me like I'm crazy.  Are you one of those people?  or do you love a nicely wrapped package as much as I do?

  6. I'm all about the nice packaging! I think it rounds out the decorations. I think I might have those same ornaments (IKEA?).
