Embellish your gift

No one seems to just give a gift wrapped in paper anymore. wrapped gifts are often embellished with bows, ribbons, straw, and gift tags. I found a neat little Etsy shop called Hedwig the White Owl which offers fun handmade gift tags, tiny albums and a little jewelry on the side!


Colleen loves to scrapbook which shows in her work. Her different choice of tags range shoes to animals. Gift tags can be used is so many ways and are very personal in choice. Going over to a holiday open house or giving a gift for the office? Tags are a wonderful visual conversation piece. I love the the three bumblebee tags with the green background. I could see using them tied around a wine bottle or even as a napkin ring on a summer picnic! Why not use them for even a baby shower or better yet, the sexy shoes on a bachelorette party!



Hedwig the White Owl also has a very cute mini album. These little albums are 2.25"x2.5", accented with eyelets and tied with a coordinating ribbon. These little albums would be wonderful for a baby shower favor, bridal shower or even hanging on your Christmas tree. Write a personal note in it and add it to a gift or even have your child write or draw in it to give to a teacher. Very unique and oh so cute!
