So my niece Madison's 3rd birthday is in April. What a big girl!I work near Madison Street in Chicago and couldn't resist taking a photo of a street sign to top her package. The sign perfectly fit with the theme of the handmade present I made her (I'll be posting her gift soon).Madison is such a popular name in the U.S. so I hope this idea will come in handy for you.Supplies:
Today I popped by my friend Anne's to drop off gifts for five-year-old son, Gavin, and her newborn son, Graham. I recycled and altered my chalkboard gift tags idea to wrap Gavin's birthday treat.Supplies:
My downstairs neighbor Susan gave us a beautifully wrapped wedding gift in thick, shiny silver and pearl-like white wrapping paper. Channeling my mom, I decided to fold up the shiny white and silver paper and store it until I found some use for it.Today I recycled the wrapping paper into a wedding card sewn with shiny metallic silver thread and coordinating lined shiny silver envelope.Supplies:
So today is my adorable niece Madison's second birthday. I made her a super cool gift that I'll post in a few days with instructions once she's unwrapped her gift. In the meantime here are instructions for her cookie jar wrapping paper.Supplies:
AT&T delivered piles of telephone books to my neighborhood a couple of weeks ago. Not needing ours but cringing at tossing the stack into the trash I decided to find some crafty uses for them. So I wrapped my sister Karin's birthday gifts with birthday-themed yellow pages.Supplies:
"Great deal! I was able to custom it and when I had any question, she responded instantly to my messages. You can also use the print outs for other things like the photo booth characters, which is just the cutest idea ever! I highly recommend this shop!"
"Easy to personalize and wonderful crisp image"
"This item is so clever! I knew I had to have it for my son's Star Wars birthday party. The download was simple and easy to modify with my own text changes. The instructions on how to get it printed at FedEx Office were easy to follow. Thank you so much for this great item! Easiest party decoration I ever made!"
"This was just what I needed to make a superhero shirt for my husband's birthday party. He loved it!! Thanks for the great digital file!"
"Thrilled to bits with my boys personalised birthday party t-shirt! Fantastic design and very clear instructions, thank you."
