I've certainly mentioned before how much I enjoy shopping on Etsy buying vintage and handmade items. Another thing I like about Etsy is how much effort the sellers put into their packaging.

Often there is also one or two little bonus giftie things added to each order. I don't think I'm the only one who likes to get extra little treats with my purchases - such a nice little touch that goes a long way in making you feel special.

Now I'm thinking about what my wrapping theme will be for Christmas this year...? Do you like to have a signature wrapping style for all of your gifts or do you like to mix it up?

Those are some wonderful little packages!

I try to pick one or two max. wrapping papers, usually plain silver or gold and do all the gifts the same way. No ribbons, no bows, very plain...I just change the tags every year...I know, not creative at all!!!!

I actually wrap pretty simple and inexpensively for Christmas...I use newspaper with pretty ribbon...and you gotta love etsy...getting a package from a seller is like receiving a present.

Almost too pretty to open! I think the packaging is a big part of what makes Etsy shopping addictive. So happy to have met you at Silver Bella, even if only briefly at the end.

It's so true Zita, there are some very talented "wrappers" out there...and it does make such a huge difference in how you feel when you get your order! These are all just gorgeous!!! Wrapping Christmas presents is something I really love and coming up with fun ways to make them pretty is always a good challenge!
