Pack original with Jek in the box

Mancano solo 19 giorni a natale e a breve dovremmo acquistare i fatidici regali natalizi.

Oltre ad avere il tipico problema del "cosa" regalare da un paio di anni sono assillata dal "come" presentare. Mi spiego: vorrei trovare una soluzione carina per impacchettare i regali in modo creativo e insolito.

Stamattina è arrivata l'illuminazione attraverso le bellissime idee di Jessica Wilson (aka Jek in the box).

Perché non usare ritagli di tessuti per le gift tag? Oppure impacchettare in modo originale usando tulle, fili e bottoni? Io li trovo deliziosi e di sicuro mi applicherò.

Jessica nel suo blog Scrum Dilly Dilly scrumdillydilly.blogspot.com ha tantissime idee da darvi.

Ta dah! Another 19 sleeps till Christmas day and we should buy all the Xmas' gifts.

Left aside this time the problem about "what" buy , I'm resolving the problem about "how to" exhibit them. Let me explain: I would like to find a nice solution for a creative and unusual packaging.

This morning I've found a greatest inspiration from the beautiful Jessica Wilson's ideas (aka Jek in the box).

Why don't use scraps of fabric to make a gift tag? Try to wrap the gifts with tulle, thread and buttons. I think they're so delicious!

Sunography Fabric Kit - Sun Powered Photography.
Place any object or transparency on the sunography fabric. Expose in bright sunlight, and rinse with water to reveal a rich blue print over assorted colours of fabric. Sunography fabric is 100% cotton, and light sensitive on both sides to make two sided prints. The superior quality of sunography fabric produces finely detailed prints. The prints can also be toned yellow or sepia using rinses with common household liquids. This type of print dates back to 1842 and was popularized by Anne Atkins, one of the first female photographers.

Autumn Leaf Sticky Note (Yellow)
Fun leaf shaped post it notes that can be used as book marks or reminders.
