Rosette Valentine goody bags.

I love handmade gift packaging.  It transforms the most inexpensive and simple gift in to something so much more.  It’s like food – you eat with your eyes first.  Same thing with gift giving – let them delight in the packaging first.

I bought some bags of those Lindt chocolate balls.  They have raspberry ones out for Valentine’s Day, did you know?! 
I dropped some in glassine bags and then embellished them for a pretty presentation.

This new fuschia rosette flower fabric from AMM is amazing.  I don’t sew, and I don’t scrapbook so I’m sure I didn’t do this beautiful piece justice, but I added in chunks of it to my bag tags to really kick up the fancy factor.

I also used a lot of pretty vintage buttons and lace and pearl trim from AMM.  My husband told me that these packages reminded him of the 20s and the flappers.  I love that comment – mission accomplished!

    Fabulous! These are gorgeous…wow! Love all the details and I LOVE that ribbon fabric. Must find some! LOL! Thanks for the link to that store too. Bookmarked it but will have to look in more detail because shipping is $15.50 yikes!

    Wow those rosettes are gorgeous (I went to check that link out- love that the price sounds so fair since it comes 12 by 12!! thanks for the new shopping place ;))! I totally love the look of these… How would one describe this style, it is like shabby chic without the vintage look! Very adorable and you have put it all together very well. 🙂

    You sure do have a great knack for dressing up those glassine bags. Don’t even see them. Love the pearls & lace.
