I know, I know enough Amy Butler already. But I really do fancy her work and now that she's released eco paper products including gorgeous gift wraps I thought it couldn't hurt to at least tell you about it... :)

I really like this simple, fresh office set up.

I know... How pretty. Wrapping paper can be used for so many DIY projects it's simply the best for adding pattern to almost anything on a budget. I like an idea I saw recently in Country Living Home magazine where art director Matthew Mead used wrapping paper to create a mat for a framed picture of a family member. It looked great and what an inexpensive and easy project. You can knock something like that out in under 15 minutes.
