- BLOG - COLLABORATION // MEANT TO BE CALLIGRAPHY. Our Tree is Up. We are going with 2D trees this year.
For one we don't own a big artificial tree, two we don't have room for a big tree, three Castle will just topple/eat the tree, four we've never had a 2D tree so it would be interesting to give it a try. And where better to put a 2D tree than on our chalkboard wall! Happy Holidays « sundaysuppers. WOODLAND WRAPPING NO. 2. I'm back on this Tuesday to share part two of our wrapping afternoon.
The first is super easy by using a white pen, marker, pencil, ect. on brown kraft/butcher paper. Draw whatever you fancy. Use stencils, free-hand or even let the children have a go at it. The second is a bit more advanced but I simply adore the outcome. Early last week I noticed THIS WRAPPING PAPER from Anthro but sadly, it's sold out. WOODLAND WRAPPING. Last Friday afternoon my sister, mom and I took advantage of a gloomy afternoon to start wrapping the pile of gifts accumulating in my mom's spare bedroom.
The wrapping is simple and we used only a small number of materials but I love, love, love concept. My mom has a beautiful collection of old black and white photos from both sets of grandparents that my sister and I drool over every so often. When is a better time to display them other than Christmas? This Christmas, our gifts will be adorned with a few special photos from the collection to act as part of the gift as well.
