My daughter’s birthday is coming up. She likes to decorate with both live and imitation plants. I won’t see her in person, so I’m mailing it. I boxed it up.
It’s a little scribbly–but enthusiastic. [Don’t tell her it’s on the way]

I had an idea for a piece of fabric art I want to make and I went searching for some green linen for the project. I didn’t find any at the charity shops OR the expensive new fabric store. I did find all this beautiful fabric that I will turn into … I don’t know… something. While there are some design constraints to using not new fabric, I love the sustainability and frugality and required creativity of using found cloth. Just for comparison purposes, that brown linen in the lower left corner is new, one yard and cost $27.00 USD. All the other pieces combined were $13.00 USD. I’ll post completed projects here.
Your birthday wrap is SO cute! Your daughter will love it. Your scribble-shading is attractive. Fabulous! I’m going to steal this idea for a family member’s birthday next month.:-)
That paisley fabric is gorgeous.

Love the wrap! A few years back I found a nice plain design (dots) paper and bought a few rolls. I use it for every occasion and just add a complimentary bow. So much easier!!

I did something like that! My paper had silver stripes-you can turn that Christmasy or baby gift ready or for a birthday or wedding, depending how you dress it up. So much easier than having a wrap for every occasion.
