honey wrap : : painted

honeywrap

For these honey wraps I painted black and yellow stripes on white paper.

I left large gaps at the edge of the paper and tried not to make the strokes too solid for a brush effect. It’s hard to see here but, the yellow is a soft metallic.

I found the bee for the gift tag via a Google image search and printed it on kraft paper.

I used this paper over several years:

For ribbon, I used this roll of plastic I found at Fit, our local Japanese two dollar store.
