It may not be a project you often think to do—to print your own gift wrap at home. However, just as wrapping a present is symbolic of your extra effort, that personal touch, getting a little messy MUST mean you really really care.
Or… that you’re simply a big dork when it comes to getting crafty with gift wrap. Join the club. Either way this printed rolling pin wrapping paper is a clever idea and also a fun project to do with the kids.

MOO Cards Gift Embellishments by Lillian Chang
If you’ve been to a conference or event in the last few years where people are handing out business cards, chances are you received a MOO Card.
Especially recognizable for their Mini Card print size (about half as tall as a standard business card), the thing that makes MOO unique is a feature they call Printfinity. It’s a quirky name for their service that allows customers to put a different image on every card printed at no extra charge.

Bloom Gift Toppers by Stephanie Brubaker
Have you seen these? Oh I’m so sad I missed them prior to Mother’s Day, but happy to have found them today! Stephanie Brubaker’s bloom gift toppers are such a simple idea with such a lovely result—and what fun to go collect all those flowers.
Stephanie uses basic kraft gift boxes, a little washi tape, and sprigs and stems of herbs and blooms from her yard and nearby. I’m thinking gifts for weddings, birthdays, baby showers—they’d all look great with flowers!

Printable Mother’s Day Gift Tags, by Claire of Fellow Fellow
Hopefully you have your little something for Mother’s Day figured out by now (psst… if not you’ve got until Sunday). To dress up your gift, these tags by Fellow Fellow are the perfect finishing touch. And the best part? You only need a printer and some scissors to make them yours.
Appreciation for all things Fellow Fellow has become a trend around here. Claire’s creations have a beautiful simplicity about them, whether they be neon feathers, DIY planters, or these pretty Mother’s Day gift tags. Love how she’s layered a couple and chosen a simple bakers twine to tie them up. A spot of tape on the back works great too.
Head to Fellow Fellow to download a copy and complete your pretty package for Mom!

Before we sign off and settle in with our families for some holiday fun, I wanted to share a few last bits of inspiration for this festive season that are making me smile, right this very minute.
There’s been a lot of love for the simplicity of kraft paper around here these last few months and these lovely rustic packages by Sunday Suppers epitomize every ounce of it. A simple mix of paper, pine, and twine. Don’t they make you want to run outside and gather some wintery bits to bring indoors? So cozy.

Who knew it was possible to love a simple gift tag so much?
I recently discovered fellow fellow and can confidently say I want everything in Claire’s pretty little shop. The feathers, the banners, the neon, the kraft paper! It’s just joyous.
That is all. Happy Friday!
