Fabric Wrap Gift Boxes {DIY}

Hello, 
I am very excited to tell you that my son will be arriving New York tomorrow afternoon. I have not seen him since last summer so it has been almost a year now. I miss him terribly. I will post pictures and story about him and I on my next blog post.

In the meantime, I had so much fun creating these fabric wrap gift boxes. These fabric wrap gift box is very easy to do. You can embellish the box with anything you want. It is fun to see the build up decoration comes a live just like mine are. Some of these trimmings were from a trimming sewn on the bottom of a top. I used the fabrics for many crafts DIY and I cut the trimming to create a rosette as an embellish on this box below.

For this photo session I am using an old abstract painting of mine as a backdrop. I have not been painting in a long time. I think I miss painting a lot lately. Since our home is on the market and always have an open house I am not ready to put out the easel, paints, canvas, etc. It is a lot of work to set it up and put finally to put a way again. So I think I won't be able to paint for a while now.

Thank you so much for stopping by!

  15. Indeed it is, besides its add value and make the whole thing stands out at all, I intend to use some Christmas fabric wrapper for my gifts this coming Christmas too, actually as always, I do believe that it is the most affordable and best way as it can be reused and recycled which is already a big thing.
