We painted some smaller stockings and added a bow and some natural twine to attach to the parcel.
2 in 1 as they become a nice tree decoration once taken off the gift.
I also spent a couple of hours making a selection of bows to top the gifts.
I loved the bright rich colours of the harlequin ribbon perfect for the children and the luxury of the green and gold velveteen makes it perfect for topping a gift.
The gifts are all ready, the toppers are all ready all I now need is the cellophane and the wrapping paper. I need to do some shopping...
Finally this is what I got up to this morning, a beautiful rainbow. I wonder if there is a pot of gold at the end, I may need it if I go shopping.
A very warm welcome to my new followers and many thanks for all of your comments, they really are appreciated and enjoyed.
Have a great weekend and see you soon.
What a wonderful idea! I love that Harlequin ribbon too. Have a great weekend.
