Thank God for Serendipty


i have decided to take the packaging plunge. i did a mini survay of some of my stores and then asked the fabulous jeweler margaret solow "http://nightingalejewelry.com/home.html"> how she does hers, which i love. but unlike me i soon realized she has the gift for gift wrapping and i don't. my idea of a gift wrap/packaging is to stick it in an old Ralph's shopping bag and call it a day. you should of seen me last Christmas, somehow i got the gift wrapping work shift......not a pretty sight under our tree. my wife on the other hand is an amazing wrapper.....oh well. so after i came to terms with my lack of ability in this area...a persons strength is in recognizing their weakness...hey that has to be a quote from somewhere....lord only knows where my brain scrapped that one up from. anyhow i contacted my old -as in i have known her since college days- friend. the super stylish Donna Labrecque. check her out! http://dlabrecque.comshe teaches branding at Art Center in Pasadena....just so happens she is working with a packaging person now......life is sweet. i love serendipity. i will update you on this process.

my packaging now and hopefully soon to be much inproved.........
