i am thinking of doing something this holiday....

like a little side deal...just because i find joy in it, but....if any of you would be interested, please let me know....

i am thinking of offering some gift wrapping services to people in the b'ham area....i love to wrap gifts, did it for many years at McRae's...i love to make big pretty bows....etc.

so... just throwing it out there for you gals, if anyone might like my assistance :) this was just something i started thinking about the other day as i really loved working in gift wrap during this time of year....

it might be such that you would need to provide me with the paper and bow making items and such...or if you gave me some criteria, i could go shopping for said items....i don't know just yet...

my idea isn't even solid yet, but just let me know if anyone might be interested...we can work up a deal ;)

Re: i am thinking of doing something this holiday....

  • I would seriously be interested!  My wrapping skilz are at a minimum :)

  • awesome!!! heather...totally let me know...

    i might even be up for hosting a "how to wrap a gift" party... LOL serious

    i really miss doing that at this time of year....my best friend in dothan would always have me wrap her gifts and i secretly loved doing it... :)

  • That is an awesome idea!! You are the bomb right now. You know I share in the joy of wrapping gifts also, so I vote YES to the gift wrap partay!!!!

  • That's a great idea. Once you wrap the McRae's way there is no going back to sloppy giftwrap! LOL...just ask Susan, I have seen her tear wrap off a newbie's box and make her do it over. She is a mess.

  • I know i'm late on this one, but count me in on the gift wrapping party if you decide to do it.  Also, I'd definitely PAY YOU to make me a HUGE bow for the top of the tree. 
  • I like Casie's bow idea.  We have an old hand me down angel topper that has sen better days.  I would be interested in a party too, I'll just have to see what our finances are like.
  • I may be down for this.  I think learning how to make bows would be fun too.  I actually took a class last year where they taught you how to make bows and gift baskets and it was alot of fun, but my bow looked horrible. :)
    Siggy coming soon....

    i might could do that ;) just let me know!

  • hey Lauren, I would be very interested in a wrapping party!!  I too share your love of wrapping. However, I lack your professional training ;) i'm a terrible bow maker so PLEASE teach a class for those who aspire to wrap as beautifully as you do!
