that's a wrap

This was a gift I gave to one of my favorite friends.  It was her 40th birthday and I wanted to do something special!  The inspiration for the gift was the Kate Spade bangle in the first photo.  On the inside of the bangle it reads "this is the year".  On the outside:  "play your cards right, lose yourself in a good book, add a twist, make sparks fly".  Along with the bangle, I gave her a little gift to represent each of the sayings.  A martini glass and nip of vodka for "add a twist"  and some lottery tickets for "play your cards right".  I found some sparklers in the shape of numbers and used a 4 and O for "let sparks fly." For "lose yourself in a good book" I gave her a gift certificate to a book store and attached a bottle of nail polish - the color is: who she's red!   This was such a fun gift to put together!
