CHRISTMAS WRAPPING IDEAS


Its just 6 days to go before Christmas! 
All the Christmas tree and decorations are up and each one of us are rushing for that last minute shopping, 
but let’s not forget the second most exciting part of the holiday, 
next to receiving gifts and pigging out on the sumptuous holiday meals, 
GIFT WRAPPING!!1
Not all of us can afford to buy those fancy papers and ribbons, 
and with everyone’s busy schedule, its hard to make fancy DIY’s too. 
But let me share some ideas on how to make your gifts look fancy, 
won’t cost a lot and best of all fast and easy.

Go green
Today, we are begining to be conscious with our environment and a lot us are now practicing with the green movement.

Making use of old magazine, burlap and brown paper will not just make your gifts look fancy but you can also help the environment.
       Button it up
Search your sewing kit and look for those loose buttons, decorate them on your gift boxes to give it some flair.

          Pack gifts

Another eco friendly idea is using those brown bags that we usually pack our sandwiches with and add some bling and ribbons and you got a beautiful gift wrap.
      Man it up!
           Perfect way to dress your gifts a little less fancy and a little less girly. 
These are also great for father's day gift wrapping

         Lace it up

Those beautiful laces that usually go with beautiful dresses can now be added to your simple gift wrapping paper to give it an elegant touch.

         Baking beauties
Who ever thought cupcake liners would make a beautiful bow.

Simple paper, wrap some doilies and ribbon.. viola!

7.       Stamp it!
Simple paper, lots of stamp and some ink. BRILLIANT!
Crafty-ness
If you still have time why not add a little effort and make this DIY paper snowflakes. I'll show you how soon.

There you have it! Nice and simple ways to wrap those gifts this holiday season!
ENJOY! ^__^
