holiday gift wrap party and a blog crush.

i'm sure you can tell by now, but i am a big fan of parties, home decor, stationery (duh.), entertaining, etc., etc., etc.  oh, and blogs.  most of the blogs i follow are listed conveniently for you at the bottom of my blog (you have to scroll alllllll the way down), should you be interested in picking up a few more to read.  yesterday i came across a blog entitled 'the sweetest occasion,' and proceeded to sift through, slack-jawed, months of entries.  clearly the writer, cyd, and i would be best friends if a) we knew each other and b) she didn't live in upstate NY.

so last night i thought, hmm...maybe i'll introduce my readers to that blog i found yesterday and loved so much.  then i went back this morning and she is featuring a freaking gift wrapping party in today's entry.  um...yes please?!  of course anything to do with paper - i'm all in, then paired together with a party and making presents look beautiful?!!?  i nearly passed out.

i am so throwing one of these next year.  me, my wholesale accounts and whoever appreciates a well-dressed gift.  let me know if you want to come.  oh, and i promise i will have the place decorated a little bit.  at least a tree.

done and done.  what a fun way to get all of your wrapping finished!!
