Most of you who have been to a baby shower or to see a new baby would agree that cutest thing to gift them are baby socks . When I went to my sister's baby shower I too gifted her those adorable baby socks. But when I started wrapping the gifts I wanted to do them in a little different way. After considering diffrent ways to pack them I came up with this idea. Later I realised that people have been doing similar versions of this already. Has this happened to you? When you think you have invented something,( even before you busk in the glory of inventing something new )you realise that this was already done by someone else. Well, whatever the case be my technique is little different and easier.You can easily do it yourself and the best part is I am happy with the results and my sister was too.

In continuation to the series of sharing gift wrapping ideas this is for those times where you have to visit a birthday party where the theme is known in advance. Also, when the gifts come online from sites like Amazon etc it becomes difficult to preserve those lovely messages that sender's send with so much of love. I personally feel that kids do not get the idea of the feelings and love behind those gifts if they are not presented to them in beautifully wrapped and with a card with message inside it. Incidently, it happened to be my daughter's birthday few months back and she received this gift from her Mausi (maternal aunt and family) and family sent via amazon. The theme of the birthday was Mickey Mouse clubhouse and my duaghter like other kids loves to open wrapped gifts (by tearing them) and I wanted to present the message sent by her mausi as a card so I came up with this idea. Since red is the color in the Mickey Mouse clubhouse theme I decived to use red ribbon and red...

Mini Canvas Art on Easel is the cutest craft I ever made. It is perfect for tabletop decoration or for decorating a computer table or desk. Basket of Roses bring a freshness everytime you look at it. I attempted making canvas art first time and was very pleased with the result. More because I created it for a very special friend who is about to go back to India. With a lot of luggage to worry about I wanted her to have a cute little thing as a sweet memory of our friendship. I came up with this idea as this is cute and can easily come in a small gift box and does not weigh much. You will agree weight is such a big problem when it comes to gifting friends who have to go back to India or any other foreign country for that matter.
