Thanksgiving hasn't even come and gone yet, but Christmas decorations are already up on the lamp posts in Union Square. Facebook statuses about Christmas music are starting to appear. And when I was at Trader Joe's yesterday, shelves of prettily-packaged peppermint bark (along with a host of other candy-cane-derived treats) lured me into at least 20 minutes of pacing, inward drooling, and ruminating on the importance of self indulgence (never mind the pounds of fresh pastries I regularly consume).
This is all very confusing to me, but as I'm still in a jolly mood (see last post), I'm simply going to accept it like the obedient consumer that I am. Hooray for the holidays! Soon it'll be time to break out the wrapping paper, bwuahahaha. That said, here's a take on Thanksgiving giftwrap, just to tickle my own fancy:

P.S. For other giftwrap designs, see here and here!
I really enjoyed coming up with my first wrapping paper design, so here's another!
It kinda puts me in a party-planning mood. Not that I've successfully planned any parties. All of the glamorous parties that I've hosted (e.g. my 12th birthday party) were put together by someone else (i.e. my mom).

Thought I'd brighten it up a bit with these gift wrap skis! One of my favorite things about presents (those received as well as those given) is their packaging -- funky wrapping paper/ ribbons/ stickers/ doodles etc. can make even the dullest gift exciting. :)

It was beautiful and sunny out today! Too bad I was mostly stuck inside a windowless workroom. The weak, yellow, and aggressively fake indoor lighting didn't help either.
Thankfully, daylight savings means that I still get to glimpse the sun when I head on home. :) I can't wait for the weather to warm up!
