Last year I posted about the rarity of my managing to make my own wrapping paper for Christmas. I didn’t blog all the handiwork until January, however, and this year isn’t looking much better as far as getting ahead of the game. …Let’s not even mention I haven’t yet bought one gift! But here’s a peak back at all the pretty little brown-paper-packages my husband and I handmade for all our loved ones. I hardly wanted them to rip that paper off, because, well, even though I’m not an artist, I’d never been prouder of something I’ve made. 😉

Happy wrapping!
