Hello Pretties!
Happy Holidays! Am I excited to tell you about my first Blogger event, “Bows and Bloggers” at The Container Store in Buckhead. Busola over at Tidy-up Gal extended an invite and I happily accepted!
The is a new location and is two stories tall and of course “contains” everything you need for an organized home and life. I could browse the shelves for hours. Upon arrival, I proceeded upstairs and was greeted by a dazzling display of items for your gift wrapping pleasure!
And this isn’t just an aisle with rolls of paper, The Gift Wonderland has everything you need for perfectly pretty gifts and lots of sample packages to spark your creativity.
Our presenters for the evening were Joni and Anne, who were funny and informative. Here are some of the highlights:
Pom Pom Bow Making 101
Satin ribbon makes great bows
Hold your ribbon like so
Twist, twist, twist
Bloggers giving it a try

A “sweet ending” to a great event
The Container Store also has great stocking stuffers:
This was an awesome event and I met some equally awesome bloggers, including Charee from Charee Lenee and of course, the hostess with the mostess Busola from Tidy-up Gal. www.chareelenee.com www.tidyupgal.com
I had an amazing time and I hope you are inspired to try something new and different in gift wrapping. How are you wrapping your gifts?
Keep it Pretty,
