Yes, another yo-yo post. I swear this is the last one for a least... a week. And, no, I'm not obsessed with yo-yos. I've just found another use for the leftover garland bits - present toppers.
I'm especially excited about these as these jaunty wrappings have made me feel much better about my giftcard presents. I've always held myself to a high standard of handmade gifts only and am finding less and less time to meet those standards for everyone on my list. And, truth is, I love receiving gift cards. I do. So, I've made a paradigm shift this year and giftcards are now acceptable to give, as long as I wrap them all cute and handmade-looking ;-)
Isaac and I were terribly sick all last week and now Charlotte is quite sick with a different bug. What precious gift-making time I had has been given up to long naps and baby cuddles. And now that we're on the home-stretch to Christmas, boxes desperately need to go out and baking needs to begin. So, giftcards are my new-found friends.
The spiffy metal tins are from the checkout stand at Michael's. They float my color boat.
