Christmas Wrapping

 
 
This year I wrapped the gifts for the four children and their children with their own art
.... saved all these years.
 
 
 Everyone is coming home for Christmas - they arrive for dinner today. 
 
 
 
 I send out lots of love to all of you who read this blog.
Your support and encouragement have meant so much to me over the years.
Thank you and have a wonderful holiday time this coming week.

hard to say which I love more ... that you saved them or that you used them ... both!

What a joy for your children to see their own artwork. I don't know that I could part with my children's creations. Perhaps copies could be made for wrapping. Nonetheless, it is a wonderful idea and one which I will certainly use in the future.

A great idea -- but we gave our kids their "keep boxes" decades ago so if they still have them, they'd have to let me peek inside for wrapping ideas! Ah well...Blessings to you and your family for Christmas and a very Happy New Year!

Dear Judy,
We had a great holiday time ... even made it to North Bay to see the 2 daughters there and the 5 little grands ... the weather cooperated beautifully !
Such a great ides of wrapping in the kids old art ! You are a better mother than I ! Once the fridge could hold no more, art was swapped out with the more current, ever coming artworks ... no one seemed to mind when their art went missing ;)
Here's wishing you and yours a fantastic 2020 !!
