Pretty packaging

Sometimes I get more excited about the packaging than what's inside.
Are you silly like me?

I have to agree! :) Ever since I can recall, I've properly opened my gifts without tearing the wrapper because the packaging is just too pretty sometimes! :)

These are all so gosh darn pretty! I wish I could wrap gifts even half as well as any of these. But yeah, I always feel bad opening such gorgeously wrapped things and feel like I'm destroying them, haha!

I would never open those! I would use them to decorate my home. Flowers and beautifully wrapped gifts.

Carissa said...

I do love a pretty package! these are all gorgeous. unfortunately, I'm usually in a mad rush to finish wrapping everything before christmas, so as long as it's covered, it's good with me! haha. but I do still take the time to add plenty of curled ribbons and bows.

It's not silly at all - great packaging is as much fun as the gift inside!

Tamera's Take said...

I definitely understand! I'm the person who tries they're vey best to rip any of the paper when unwrapping a gift so I can save it!

That's gorgeous! I love beautiful wrapping, but then I don't want to open present because I would destroy the wrapping...

I know right?! Same here. And sometimes the packaging is so cute that I don't even want to open it anymore.

Love this post and totally agree-- have been rather obsessed with getting coordinating papers, ribbons and the like to make all of the gifts look good wrapped up. Getting to be worried that the wrapping makes the gifts look better than they actually are! Haha

Have a great day!

ChinkyGirLMeL said...

Me too. Sometimes, I don't ever want to open a present just because the packaging is just too cute to tear open.

Angelica Ng said...
