Personalised Wrapping Paper

Yesterday was my Mother's Birthday

It was a significant one

I wrapped her presents in sheets of paper that I photocopied old photo's on to 

making a highly personal wrapping paper

I simply used A4 paper and glued 4 sheets together with glue stick for the larger one

It went down an absolute treat

I twittered this yesterday and while I usually would not repeat myself it got such a huge reaction I thought I would post it here for those who missed it or don't twitter

Just came across the work of 

Donya Coward

on Abigail Ahern's FB page

You know that feeling when you see something and your heart races

Almost like a little panic attack.......

A panic attack about just how exquisite something is.....

well, 

Donya uses vintage lace and beading to create these 

The magpie above and Zebra are my favourites

The eyelashes..... !

Intricate and exquisite
