They did it again. Yeap, West Elm made my heart race. Literally, you’d of thought I sprinted from the subway. So, I went in the store today just simple to browse “what’s new” and peak at their new collaborations. Well today I was in for a real treat because their holiday wrapping is in. I always anticipate the fabulous wrapping ideas for the holidays from various retailers (anthropologie, tory burch, west elm, neiman marcus, saks). For me, sometimes the wrapping makes me more excited than the actual gift…doesn’t take much to make me smile – just a fabulous design idea!
Today I bought a small gift, and the gal stocked my bag with ALL 3 gift tags and a fabulous little animal tag as well. We shared a few “studio” stories; she goes to Pratt and I have fond memories of late (and delirious) nights at studio while in architecture school.
Props to West Elm for another fab idea…
…sweet, sweet treat. It’s a Valentine’s Day card download for you.

I sure did get my fix of this place today. I spent over an hour looking at trims and ribbons, and contemplating over what I liked the best. The store is literally floor to ceiling FULL of any little trimming “thing” you could ever want. More to come…
Have a splendid LONG & RELAXING weekend!
