I had one of those "where the heck have I been" moments last week, when my nephew brought his Build-A-Fort kit to Thanksgiving - complete with sheets, clips, rope, suction cups, and more. The kit was a handmade birthday gift from his friend Joli. When I emailed her, she sent me a link to this tutorial over at BLOOM - thanks Joli!
As promised, here is the most incredible gift wrap diy project E-V-E-R, carefully crafted by the fabulous Summer Watkins over at Grey Likes Weddings . We have been blown away by today’s gorgeousness here on SMP and owe it all to Summer’s spot on style and craft savvy. Thanks so much Summer…we heart you big time. So the DIY is for the center row image on the left, the adorable fabric pom. It’s SO freaking cute, I only wish I had thought of it myself. http://www.stylemepretty.com/living/2009/12/16/diy-gift-wrap-by-grey-likes-weddings/
