Two gifts ready for giving - gift wrapping idea

So when I say that I will be back on Monday that really means "unless I have a little weekend update".

Here is a quick couple of presents wrapped, ready for giving.



I made a couple of simple gift tags by cutting some crisp white Bazzill cardstock and adding a Martha Stewart folio (from Staples) sticker to the front. I love the linen texture of the original Bazzill.






After wrapping the gift, I added some of the ribbon that I talked about here. Then I tied some red fabric ribbon around the other way and stuck a small glitter-branch, the gift tag and a peppermint cane under the ribbon.


Here I used the chevron gift wrap from the 1-dollar section at Target, that I tweeted about the other day. I dressed it up with some sheer ribbon. I love that you can see the chevron through the ribbon. Then I added snow flakes which I attached with glue dots. Finally I wrapped pink craft string around the other way and tied a big jingle bell to the string. I pushed the gift tag under the bell.

I love how you can dress up gift wrap. I usually buy papers that I can use all year round and these red and white papers can easily be used for any occasion.
