Presents of Mine

In the midst of gifting up for other people, a brief reversal arrived in the mail yesterday. I had all but forgotten a giveaway I had won on Zaranne Handmade in the whirlwind of the last fortnight. Look at that pretty wrapping!Because I am very tired and ditzy at the moment I thought it was actually tiny bunting.
There was also a tiny heart shaped decoration that reminded me of part of a certain tail light. The card could be the Big Fella and I if you squint and make it look less calm and structured.
See how the bunting works! Just tiny paper triangles on white cartridge with ribbon tied over it. So clever and sweet and simple.
Inside there was more sunny yellow bunting. I have to think about where to put it. I'm considering it as the new garden party bunting as the crocheted garlands I normally bring out are on the Christmas tree. There's even a yellow toned pillowcase. You know I can't cut them don't you, Zara?
I got all festive then and tied these pretty cookie cutters on the cookie packs I made the teachers. They are 3 for $2 at K-mart so I bought a few for little nephews as well. With the spotty ribbon they would be nice enough to hang on the tree as decorations.
Then B1 indirectly informed me that he had a girlfriend and needed to buy her a present of chocolates and flowers. "Son", I said."You don't give flowers to a girl in December in Brisbane unless she lives in a fridge." So we went with a $2 snow dome and chocolate. Do you like the heart cookie cutter? I got a bit carried away and he didn't ask me to remove it.

The card said something like," Dear K., Have a great Christmas. I'll miss you. Bye." He's not gushy. Then he got a friend to give it to her at the break up party tonight because he had to leave to go to the football. It does not bode well for their future happiness.
Suddenly I'm in the mood to wrap. Pity I've bought no presents yet! How are you lot progressing with present pile ups.
