Creative wrapping paper
Last month was Abbey’s birthday. I bought her the two DVD edition of Twilight . Like my birthday present we both laughed when she opened it.
Since the movie shares my name I had to see it. But I’m not a fan of the book series. I don’t like the thinly veiled abstinence until marriage message and other morality lessons weaved into the storyline.
The movie is another matter entirely. It was a hot mess and I loved it! I haven’t laughed that hard at a non-intentional comedy in years. During the dramatic climax I was laughing so hard I was crying. I wholeheartedly recommend it-just not for the reasons the producers had in mind.
When the DVD version came out featuring deleted scenes I knew I had to get it for Abbey. We made a girls day out of watching the movie and plan to do the same for the bonus material.
To wrap the present I used an old sewing pattern. The pattern was so old it started tearing as I was wrapping so it was perfect to recycle.
Then I cut some of the paper into strips and made a fun bow.
