lovely package workshop:


We had the lovely package workshop a couple weeks ago at Salvage Life. It's a lot of fun to prep and set up for events, to gather the props and supplies needed. Here are some shots from around the workshop that day. My husband took most of these, he is the best! :)

Some shots of the workshop set up and all the things we had to package with.

Had some little eats before the workshop started.

We had guests Tristan from Besotted Brand and Lauren from Lauren Elise Crafted join us and show us some super cute packaging ideas.

Beth set up her photo area with cute props to take pictures of the packages - so fun!

Shots from around the workshop and the tables.

All in all, I think it went well. Packaging is something I love to do and it's always fun to meet new friends. Thanks to Megan, Elizabeth, and Jennifer for joining us!

  2. Danni...first of all, that "it is well" post was at the heart of so many of us. It is what I come back to often and yes...when it all boils down, the ambitions and goals and dreams we have for life really pale in comparison to His ultimate goal for us...which is simply being His child and drawing close to Him.
    I have to keep that in check so much and it is good to see I am not the only one that does.

    Secondly...why do all of the fun things happen in California?? If I knew one ioda about packaging I'd host my own workshop here in the Bluegrass State ;)

  3. This looks so neat and like something I might really like to do as a part of the market I run.

    So, question..

    Did everyone bring the gifts they needed to wrap? Is that how it went?

    I'm intrigued... THANK YOU, Danni!

    xo,

  14. Oh what fun! I wish we have package workshop like yours in Australia, I am no good at it. I recently participated in your package exchange and I had such a hard time making my present presentable. My swap partner Leslie on the other did the most amazing job. You can see what she has done on my blog.
