Thank you very much Flickr EXPLORE!
Now you can win this mug in a New Year's Eve contest that concludes on 1/11/11!!!
I can't really explain in just a few words exactly why I enjoy creating great gifts for people so much. I enjoy the creativity of it. I like to share things with people that I know they will appreciate and things that will make their lives easier and their hearts happy.
I love their comments about the packaging being a gift in itself. I love how some recipients carefully disassemble each piece and others rip right through it like the world is going to come to an end if they don't get to the good stuff ... the contents ... the real gift ... now! I guess I just enjoy that whole process.
It's also a hobby that fits the size of my life. I've never owned a square inch of this earth. I live in a 600 square foot space that I rent. I'm very grateful for these 600 square feet. They've been good to me. I've cared for them well, and I've lived in them happily and successfully for twenty-two years.
I've had twenty-seven people over for supper in this space. I've hosted our men's Bible study group here many times, studying and praying with some of the most spiritually-minded men that I've ever known ... guys who understand the value and the strength of reflecting Jesus clearly to this world through their lives ... humbly, gently, quietly.
For seven and a half years, a great youth ministry flourished from this little corner of the world. And over a span of two decades, I've been blessed with a strong, life-changing relationship with our Father, Jesus and His Holy Spirit in this house.
Living in this little place has helped me to understand and appreciate some incredible lyrics penned by Fernando Ortega, "You can have all this world, but give me Jesus." He doesn't need a lot of space to deliver undeserved forgiveness, deep inner peace, contentment in the depths of the soul and overflowing joy. This is a good place for me to be. What I have learned and experienced here helps me be good to others.
I've got friends who own land, and they hunt, camp and fish. I've got friends who have money, and they travel to amazing places. I have friends who have large TVs, and they sit and watch them ( I don't recommend that one). I have friends who are social and political movers and shakers, and they move and shake. And I love that.
I have a drop-leaf table, some great papers, some cool gifts and a camera, and I create gifts that I believe make people feel special ... important ... and loved. And I love that. We all do what works within the space we've been given, and it all comes together to make a pretty fascinating and enjoyable world.
I guess it would be possible to camp out in my living room, but the hunting and fishing parts wouldn't work too well. Thirty feet is as far as you can travel in any one direction in this house, and some furniture would have to be moved to get into the beginning and ending corners of that little trip. Watching TV isn't an option because I don't have one ... one of the greatest decisions of my life. Times with friends and family work well here, and voting gets taken care of on a consistent basis, but not in here. However, lots of great gifts get wrapped and photographed in here before being whisked out the door on their way to their new homes. That makes me happy.
I've got a great little life, and I love sharing it with others. I guess that's why I enjoy creating great gifts for people so much. Create some great gifts for the people in your life. Their friendships are the greatest gifts on earth.

Here's the scoop on these packages: The papers and prints are a fun mix from Hollander's, Paper Mojo and iStockPhoto. I love that grungy candy cane starburst design. Something told me it would make a crazy cool package, and it did. It makes such a bold statement that I just used it as is ... no embellishments ... perfect for an eighteen-year-old ... quick ... simple ... memorable. He tore into it!
The green and white fleur-de-lis paper is accented with metallic gold highlights. It's simply one of the most beautiful papers I've ever worked with. Kudos to the designer. The same goes for that red, marbled paper. It's simply stunning and serves as a great backdrop for the laser-cut wooden snowflakes (an Etsy purchase) on the top and sides.
On my budget, these specialty papers are only affordable for small gifts, but the longest dimensions of these boxes averaged five inches, so they were a good match this time around.
The ribbons are pretty simple and inexpensive ... grosgrain ... sheer ... satin with gold highlights ... and a dark green cord to add texture to the gift for my brother.
I loved the contents ... personalized, handmade mugs for everyone ... one of those surprises that is actually fun. The boxes without bows all contained some small bills and were wrapped at the last second ... literally an hour before they opened them (I always do that). Some hard things hit our family this year, and I simply ran out of time for Christmas shopping. (Note to self: Nobody complained about getting money.)
I've been blessed with an incredibly wonderful family and the best friends on earth. I consider it an honor to have the opportunity to give back to them in this way, because the real gifts are their friendships, and for that, I am extremely grateful.
Merry Christmas 2010!
May 2011 be kind to you and those you love.

Note to Lightroom fans: I bounced the flash off of the ceiling and intensified the blacks just a touch with the slider in Lightroom to make the background recede.
Wrapping gifts is a great way to keep the designer in me happy and healthy. It encourages me to create something wonderful and fun and then let it go ... give it away. This life is all about that flow. Creating beautiful experiences for other people is infinitely more rewarding that accumulating beautiful things for yourself.
My schedule stays overloaded, so I give a lot of presents in gift bags, but when I can squeeze it in, I like to do something special. This was a lot of fun! These gifts went to David and Katie ... good friends of mine who just got married this summer.
When I saw these deer, I knew they would be appropriate and practical ... perfectly identifying his and hers. This graceful couple arrived in town the day before I gave the gift. (Thank you, Michelle, for going the extra mile to make sure they were here in time!)
The setup for these gifts is really pretty simple ... fabric from Wal-Mart ... Venice lace trim and a color-coordinated fiber embellishment bundle from Etsy to give a meadow effect ... oh ... and the deer. I think that all of those elements together make a great combo. I'm very pleased with the results ... a very appropriate presentation for the most important part of the gift ... personalized mugs from Etsy that read "David ♥ Katie" and "Katie ♥ David". Sweet!
You only get to live life once. Use your talents to honor Jesus and treat people the way He treats you. That's the recipe for a truly abundant life. These gifts are for a couple who encourage me to do that everyday. That's the greatest gift of all.
Congratulations, David and Katie!
I'm proud of you!

I've been so behind this project but I'm still not giving up. I'll try uploading one a time.
This one was taken at Northwest Inn, we grew fond of hanging out at the hotel's lobby cafe since we discovered how delicious their meals are. Especially this summer, going out for snacks or late night dinners is a joy since they're always open no matter what time it is. And the service is superb!
Above is the hotel's display of mugs with engraved names of famous and regular customers. Couldn't help but take a snapshot.
