Gift Box




The Cyrenians in Edinburgh (a charity working with homeless people) have had a good season with the strawberries from their organic farm. Their strawberries are packaged in these cute and environmentally friendly papier mache boxes which I'm now decorating to use as gift boxes.

Very cute...I've been fooling around w/ small little pizza boxes that you sometimes get stuff in from pizza places. Lovely idea!
