I have a thing for grosgrain ribbon. Black grosgrain ribbon to be exact. I tend to tie up all of my gifts with it. It has become a sort of signature of mine. I have a whole drawer full of all kinds of widths. Always available on a moment's notice to add a special little detail to a gift. Do you have any tips for adding the special touch to your gifts?

Hi Grant, I love the paper, also. I love brown paper bag paper highlighted with great gold ribbon--the counterpoint.
Herbs or fragrant leaves like bay laurel inserted in the bow. Not very original but a nice sight and smell touch.

whew! i thought you were giving up the blog!
Stole/borrowed this from a girlfriend. She (I do this too) saves all those random ribbon bits left over from gifts and nearly empty ribbon spools.
Sorting by color knot a variety of these bits until you create the length you need to wrap the gift. Looks so great!
Your all black grosgrain in different widths could have a wonderful impact. Cheers!
