Creative Wrapping!!!

When I have time and energy I like to try and add a little more personal touch to the presents we give to the children's friends and the children in the family!

Got this pretty paper at the dollar store and thought why not add a flower on top!!! So I searched on the internet 'paper flowers' or 'tissue paper flowers' and found a cute how to make Giant Paper Flowers on youtube! And look how pretty it came out!!! Perfect for a 3 yr. old little girl's birthday present!!! Hope she likes it!!!

As for the boys you can't go wrong w/ SpongeBob!!! Just bought a cheap plain yellow bag and used construction paper, a permanent marker and a red pen!!! It came out so well that it looked like it was store bought!!! Just turned a $1 bag into a $4 bag! I bet you can guess what kind of present is in side!!! Yep, SpongeBob books and a SpongeBob Movie for an Awesome Boy!!!

This one was a little out there!!! Can you tell what we were going for?

We (meaning the kids and I) love the GEICO commercials so for one of the boy's friends we thought we add a stack of money that was: "somebody's watchin' me"!!!

Lol!!!

Did you see it now?

We liked it and so did the friend but it did get destroyed in the unwrapping of the present!!! That's what boys do!!! Lol =)

Making Tissue Paper Butterflies

When Lila was able to pull up and stand in her crib she could reach her mobile. That was a sad day I loved having something for her to look at as she was laying in bed and I had to take it down. So I took some things that I had around the house to make her something new and colorful to decorate her ceiling with!

Butterflies!!!

Lucky Me that I had all the things I need to make pretty butterflies without spending any money!!! Not that any of it is costly, lol =) I used tissue out of presents given to us (Lila's and mine had the pretty girly colors and got blues, greens out of the boys presents), the clothespins used for a game at the baby show (yep I still had them)! And to hang them I used the ribbon from the free balloons at the grocery store!

All you have to do is fold the tissue paper in half so both side have the great coloring then fold it like an accordion, find the middle and put that in the mouth of the clothespin, and last fluff out he sides!!!

I really can't wait till Lila is old enough to do this one with me since we will always get new pretty tissue paper!!!

They make great party decorations just string them up with some ribbon and tape!

Lila's Room!!! And when the air is running or the window is open for a breeze they will flutter!!! Really cool for a little girls room!!! Super easy and cheap =)

~Enjoy~
