Delicate vintage-style brooch

Our traditional secret Santa / handmade gift exchange at the office came and went.. and so did 2010! Can you believe it? Oh well. In early December, we drew the name of our gift recipient from a tea cup, and off I ran to my little crafting room. Easily enough, just thinking about the person inspired me to pick out specific material from my boxes.

my love for wrapping things

Whenever I'd walk pass those gift wrapping stations in the mall during the holidays, I would often picture myself as one of the gift wrapping people ("gift wrappers"?). I absolutely ADORE wrapping packages... I can't imagine bringing my gifts to a station to have them wrapped by hands that are not mine.
