Fast and easy gift idea

I found this idea from a cool blog I enjoy called Eighteen25.

Their teacher appreciation gift idea translated perfectly as a way to add a little extra something to a birthday gift for one of my good friends.  She and I share an obsession for both wine and chocolate so I couldn’t think of a better gift than a little of each.

It only took me about a half hour to substitute cute patterned paper and ribbon for the chocolate wrapper and create a fun tag to attach to the wine that reads, “You deserve chocolate and wine.  (It is your birthday after all!)”.  She loved the gift and I felt an extra little burst of pride when she said, “You always make everything look so cute!”
