✨ Can you believe it’s just 100 days until Christmas? 🧑‍🎄
Before I started my gift wrapping business, I’ll admit—seeing Christmas cards in the shops in September used to drive me a little mad 😅.

These days I usually hold back on posting festive content until a bit later… but I’d really love your thoughts 👉 When do you feel ready to start seeing Christmas inspo? Drop me a comment below ⬇️

🎉 And speaking of celebrations—we’re marking 30 years in business with weekly ribbon offers right up until December! Each week you can snap up a 10m or even a 100m roll of ribbon (handpicked by me) for just £1. Yes, really—only a quid! 🙌

This week’s star: our caramel & cream dotty ribbon 🎀 (10m roll, usually £5.99).

Wishing you a happy Tuesday,

Gift wrapping some money or a voucher but don’t want to tuck it into a card? 🎉
A simple envelope can become a beautiful gift on its own ✨… and my favourite is the last one with a slight twist to the side

It’s the little touches that make the biggest impression — a ribbon tied just so, a sprig of wheat, and the quiet elegance of a gift wrapped with intention 🌾

It’s not just a gift, it’s the art of detail and precision — where every fold, bow, and ribbon speaks volumes 🎁✨

🎁 Over the last 30 years of gift wrapping, I’ve had my fair share of people not believing in my vision mixed with the joy of hearing some truly lovely words from clients ✨

Here are just a few of the comments that have stayed with me… the good, the bad and the ugly …. ✨ And the last one? Definitely my favourite. 💛
