Thank you for your comments on yesterday's post! I drew a winner and it was Christina in Australia. Let my know your address, C.

I thought these large brown envelopes would come in handy when I saw them at the supermarket, and since then I've started using them for wrapping gifts.

It's a pretty quick and dirty wrapping idea: take a big manila envelope, stamp all over it (I used hand-carved stamps) in coloured ink, punch a hole and tie some string (or use washi tape to secure the contents). No cutting, measuring, sellotaping, etc.

I intend to make a big stack of these to keep in the cupboard using different stamps and inks. That would be really organised of me.

There's this song: FLOCK OF HEARTS that I've loved for a long time. Recently I discovered this video made by artist Sarah-Jane Parton- it's beautiful, and filmed in my local part of Wellington. You might like it too.
