Friday is here- the first Friday of this wonderful month, and the first Friday post on this blog! My weekend will be filled with a little traveling, a birthday party, and a baby shower celebration for some friends who are expecting twins. Wrapping presents in preparation for parties is something that brings me much joy. I am sometimes one of the few people to bring a non-gift-bag-wrapped present to a party, and I thought I would share a present that I wrapped with a very simple method. This present is for my good friend's birthday, and I wrapped the gift thematically according to her love of pink.

| A small piece of wrapping paper cut to fit on the lid of the plain cardboard box, and decorated with thematic stickers |
 |
| A pink tulle bow to top it off, and a little bright pink satin ribbon added as a shot of color |
|
Once I am finished wrapping any present the final touch is, of course, the card. I store a collection of cards, so that I have some on hand when the need arises for whatever occasion. I enjoy color-coordinating the pen or marker I use to write in the card with the colors of the card, and have collected an assortment of Sharpies as a result.
