Hey there! Ever have big plans to package, wrap, and embellish a gift perfectly? Then life happens. Suddenly it's time to give the gift but none of your plans happened?
This happened to me before OnStage in Kansas City a couple of weeks ago. I had purchased gifts for my team attending with me a couple of months ago, but didn't package them then. My first mistake.
I put a "check-mark" beside that item on my mental "to do" list. My second mistake.
My son joined the cast of a play at our local community college. The first and only night I could attend was the night before we left for OnStage. NOT a mistake, just part of life happens.
Throw in a house guest, and I didn't remember my team gifts or packaging them until late Thursday night. No time to design a cute tag or anything!
White Gift Boxes and Real Red 3/4" Stitched Edge Ribbon to the rescue!
These boxes are 3" x 3" x 3", come with clear acetate sleeves, and are food safe. Eight boxes for $8. They fit the gift perfectly!
Tidsoptimist that I am, (did you know tidsoptimist is really a word? It means "a person who is habitually late because they think they have more time than they do") I was still thinking about a tag when I tied Real Red 3/4" Stitched Edge Ribbon into a bow. WOW! They were perfect as is!
Think you should probably have some of these boxes on hand for when life happens to you? You can order them in my online store! www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
