Wrap Gifts using Recycled Items
If you haven’t wrapped your gifts yet or you haven’t bought wrapping paper try using household and recycled items to create beautiful gifts. Using things you already have can create inexpensive and unique gift wrap designs. Reusing is also great if you don’t feel like fighting the crowds just to get wrapping paper. Post pictures of your reused gift wrap designs…I would love to see them.
The gift set pictured above incorporates reused tissue, pieces of gift wrap and ribbon scraps to create the design.
Shopping bags make a fun gift wrap. Accent the gift with natural elements and cinnamon sticks. Here are the instructions on how to make the Shopping Bag Wrap design.
With all the of the online holiday shopping this season, here is a use for your leftover bubble wrap. Cut a band of the bubble wrap to fit the gift. Cut slits into the flat side of each bubble and insert star mint candies into each bubble to create a fun and edible ribbon.
