I LOVE giving gifts! I also enjoy picking them out, wrapping them, and handing them out. So much fun! This year we decided to go for an old-timey package theme. It's actually much cheaper to do it this way, as you can get a huge roll of brown packing paper for about $4. And we only needed one roll to wrap everything! I think they look great all displayed on the mantelpiece.
In addition to gifts for our family, I made around 9 dozen cookies to share with various households. Sticking with our old-timey theme, I tied up brown paper lunchbags with string, and added the gift tags. I am a big fan of stamps (if this is not obvious yet, it will be!) and I found exactly what I was looking for at an art supply store for around $7. The cookies were delicious by the way (oatmeal with spice and dried cranberry), although I can't take credit as my lovely partner-in-crime did most of the work.
