Warmth of Home Wednesday./ A Special Giftl!

Who doesn't love to get a gift!  I sure do and I really don't know of anyone who doesn't!  It conveys to the giver that you are a special person.  When giving a gift the present itself, before ever being opened, speaks volumes.  It has the ability to excite you and make you happy before you even peak inside.  It does not have to be elaborate with fancy ribbons and bows.  Something simple but creative has the same effect.
Hear is a present I received recently!  It is a printed sack decorated with a butterfly cut from old newsprint, a tea stained tag with some lace attached to the bottom, in which to write a message and some colored seam binding.  What a great presentation!  This was a gift from Traci a shop owner.  Her shop is called Whimsy.  She has a great blog!  http://whimsydecor.blogspot.com/   Do check it out, she has some great stuff!
As a visual person, I love magazines, making this a great gift for me.  This magazine is loaded with inspiration.  I was pretty excited to get it! Take a look inside at one of the many ideas!!!
This flower arrangement was placed in a vintage dish which adds to its character but I love the way they curled the leaves and tucked them in amongst the flower.  .Doesn't this just inspire you to try something new and fresh in your home? 

This gift was a home run!  It was a perfect gift which was so delightful to receive.  It motivated me to give a gift to someone else and be just as creative.  Was it expensive, consuming of time and labor?  No, just thoughtful and so fun!  Keep it simple and creative and bless the socks off of someone special.  Remember, "You are blessed to be a blessing!" Let those creative juices flow with love to others!

       
Blessings from my Home to Yours!
