GiftGloss rocks my world...


So. The fabulous FoofQueens asked me if I would test drive their unique and original product-GiftGloss.
I am a packaging presentation fanatic, so this was intriguing to me. It's all about presentation with pizzazz. GiftGloss is an amazing idea and changes the packaging game. The short + sweet version-GiftGloss is a clear, sleeve system designed to provide beautiful packaging presentation. So easy to use. You can wrap virtually any shaped item just slide and tie. No more struggling with rolls of cello. Perfect for gift packaging, decor, party favor and product presentation. Food safe for baked goods. Cute safe for everything:)

The GiftGloss girls are offering a generous 20% discount on their brilliant starter kit for my besties. Code-PURPLE

Simply an amazing product and idea. Perfect for you or for a holiday gift for someone super special. I tested it out on everything in sight:)


Totally love +adore.
