Let's Talk Gift Wrapping

Let's start over in 2018

It has recently dawned upon me that I am a shocker at blogging. Whilst I have grand plans for my blog, life happens and blogging gets pushed to the bottom of my to-do-list. That is about to change.  I have vowed to become more committed to establishing my blog as a go to resource for all things gift-wrapping & the various creative & crafty extensions that the wonderful world of gift wrapping and packaging/ visual presentation may garner. I will from time to time blog about experiences that I feel are worthy of sharing, not limited to gift wrapping and packaging, but to do with living life as a sensory stimulated person, who loves anything bright & beautiful. 

To launch the new wave of The Gift Wrap Studio blog posts by me, I thought it fitting to tell you more about me. I have come up with 20 things about me which, most don’t know, and I would like to share with you, in no particular order;

  1. I tend to view my life as either really terrible or really fantastic
  2. In my previous life (when I was much much younger) I sold jewellery packaging and display materials
  3. My favourite fruits are granadilla & pomegranate
  4. I worry that my memory is going
  5. I have never been married and I have no children
  6. I love to travel – my favorite travel destination in the world is ITALY
Pisa ITALY
 
7. I adore books – I buy more books than I am able to read
8. I believe that loss is the ultimate leveller, I have lost both my father and my brother
9. I love food, all food. I love everything to do with food, preparing it, cooking it, presenting it, photographing it, sharing it & eating it

Food is Art
 
10. I am named after a German actress, Romy Schneider. She sadly committed suicide in 1977
11. I am a mixed breed, and have no South African blood running through my veins. My father was German and my mother is British (both born & bred). South Africa is my place of birth, so I am indeed South African & passionately so
12. I take thousands of photographs
13. I love to study. I want to study more & more & more, again & again. The quest for knowledge feeds my soul
14. I love to laugh
15, I am the eldest of four
16. I am Aries
17. My bark is way worse than my bite
18. I really don’t like wearing make-up – I honestly don’t think it makes much of a difference – perhaps I am doing it wrong?

No Make-up
 
19. I am a giver, I don’t like receiving
20. I adore my dogs – Keeko, Zoey & Pippa
 

The dogs
