Your out shopping and you find this fabulous piece of jewelry and know exactly who you are going to give it to; only one problem....How to wrap it, or present it? Creativity is the spice of life; as we come up with great ideas we will share them with you. After all, the only thing better than getting a gift from the heart is creating a memory surrounding it that they will always remember...


Here are a few examples:


* Limouge trinket boxes make for a beautiful and theme oriented way to give jewelry (seriously) the packaging is a gift in itself.


* Buy a beautiful jewelry box (for storing jewelry) and place the item you brought inside it appropriately. (you can wrap the item and place it inside or just leave it visible for the recipient to discover!


*Buy a small bonsai tree or an orchid plant and drape a necklace or bracelet over the top branches or blooms.


*A stuffed animal also makes a great way to display and gift a necklace or bracelet...get creative; you could even tie a bow around Teddy's neck and attach a beautiful ring or pendant to it. Pins and broaches are also great!


*Buy a flower pot (starter kit) which is usually a pot filled with dirt all ready to go and a packet of seeds or bulbs (open the packet of seeds or bulbs and place your item wrapped in saran wrap) inside of the seed packet. Make sure to tell the recipient, it's Ultra important that they tend to the planting at once and that they do not leave it up to anyone else to do. Imagine their surprise when they open that envelope.
 A little note that says something to this effect; 
"I grow fonder of you every day"...."Our friendship has grown so close...Thank you"....or ..."Acquaintance GREW to friendship and friendship BLOOMED into Love, I couldn't LEAVE our/your special day unnoticed, Happy _______!"
