Pretty Package Party

December is here! Now that I've shopped my heart out, it's time to get wrapping. So I thought it would be the perfect time for a little gift wrap inspiration thanks to some of my favorite blogger friends. Let's get this party started! Want to join us? Simply post your gift wrap and tag it with #prettypackage.

I'll break the ice with pretty package -  one that involves zero christmas paper but still feels festive. I used simple black kraft paper (purchased cheaply in giant rolls bulk) and these Martha Stewart mini battery lights to add a little something unexpected to a special package.
