I came across an adorable shop on Etsy called Sweet Thymes. According to the business owner, Monique Smaby, Sweet Thymes is “Elegant, Rustic Event Decor. Handmade in California.” Her designs are charming… who couldn’t use some burlap and twine in their life? Monique, who has a background in events and fashion design, has teamed up with Blonder Ambitions for a giveaway just in time for Valentine’s Day!

I always seek originality when giving a gift. A gift, even the wrapping, should feel personalized. This is especially true on Valentine’s Day… a day when the whole point is to show someone that you took a little extra time to show them you love them. I decided to hit up the local craft store and buy some glittery paper, some V-Day style glittery hearts, and some brown paper bags. Then I let my imagination run wild. The result is an eye-catching and completely unique gift bag. No need for a gift card… The bag is sentiment enough.
