Skip the Wrapping Paper

September is known as "Birthday Palooza" in our household, seeing as a vast number of family and friends all have birthdays during the month. In preparation for the numerous festivities, I've begun a little wrapping. I enjoy the decorated boxes. They're too pretty to cover up with wrapping paper, which saves time and money that will literally be thrown away.

This particular box came in a set of 2. You could stick a bow on the outside (or not) and you're good to go! My family is notorious for re-using boxes, where the occasional "fooler box" always deceives the recipient. Gift bags are great, too!
