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.

  1. Laughed until we cried!! I’ve watched it again and loved having the memory of our movie night. I shouted out “this is when we started throwing popcorn!” Thanks so much, the wrapping was fabulous.
    You always have the cutest ideas!!!
