Ok...maybe the title should be "I need to get wrapping!" Haha! ;)
Since Kevin and I are living in an itty bitty apartment, it's super hard to hind presents - I've already hidden a few in the garage but with the subzero temps we're having I've had to rethink that idea - ha! So, I have several of his present but haven't really wrapped any. In fact, the only ones that have been wrapped are the one's Von Maur wrapped for me! Ha! Don't you just *love* stores that wrap for free?!? Cause I sure do!! :) I usually love wrapping and actually look forward to it but for some reason I just can't seem to get inspired this year. So, who did I turn to for inspiration? Martha Stewart, of course!! :)
This one is my absolute favorite!!! I adore black and white patterns so this print is right up my alley!! I particularly like the bottom one, but instead of a message I would probably turn that into some sort of monogram name card. Just love it!!
Love these colorful monogrammed presents - I heart monograms!!
A bottle of yummy wine is such a great hostess gift and I'm always thinking of new ways to wrap it (instead of the wine gift bag I usually end up using - ha!)...anyways, I thought these were all pretty cute and fun!
Fun and Fabulous! I love Chinese to-go boxes!!
I am so using this idea next year for our family's gifts! What a neat idea!!
Lump of coal - Soooo cute!! What a great jewelry box!
I'm definitely using this idea when I have little ones!! I know my parents would love something like this!! Just precious!
My little brother is at that age where he LOVES gift cards - won't this be a fun way to give gift cards?!? ....this is why I love Martha Stewart's website, I'd never think of doing something like this!!
So pretty - very classical Christmas.
When I saw these, I actually sang the line from Sound of Music song "My Favorite Things." You know the song "....brown paper packages tied up with strings - these are a few of my favorite things"
Ha! Yup, that's right - I'm a dork!
Pretty "woodsy" - it would be perfect for my husband and brother! I'm totally gonna have to track it down for next year!
I'd love to hear about/see any gift wrapping inspirations you all have!

Well we have a huge box that holds all of our wrapping paper - so I usually just dig in there to find my inspiration... not that exciting, but TRUE!
I got a reversible black and white houndstooth and toile wrapping paper that I'm absolutely obsessing over this year - it looks PERFECT with a big red bow!
I know where to find my gifts! The garage!! Heehee! Luv u!
I LOVE wrapping gifts, it is one of my favorite parts about x-mas!
I love Martha and her wrapping is absolute perfection! I too am a monogramming addict:)
