Simple Ways to Dress up a Plain Package
The Holidays are coming, and they're coming fast. Which means shopping, cooking, baking, decorating... and on December 24th, a late night of wrapping. And wrapping. And wrapping. But wrapping gifts doesn't have to be stressful! Here are a few easy gift wrap ideas that you can use to dress up even the most plain package!
Wrap your packages with plain craft paper. You can buy rolls in the gift wrap department or sometimes get plain paper at a craft store or even hardware stores in the paint section. You can decorate the paper itself for homemade gift wrap as this tutorial shows, but don't ignore the extras in the wrapping process. Dress up your packages with these simple tips!
Wrapping up a Gift for a Guy
This gift wrap is perfect for a masculine gift - just grab some baker's twine and "manly" ornaments.
Wrap the package in baker's twine, tie a knot, then tie the ornaments to the ends of the twine.
Add Bling To Your Christmas Packages
Even easier - you can use a roll of bling to decorate your package.
Just wrap the package - over and over and over - then tie the ends to secure.
Sparkle Garland Confetti for a Christmas Present
You can use some tinsel garland to decorate a package, almost as easily.
Wrap the garland around the package, tie to secure.
Twist a second piece around the center so you have four ends, then twist each end around a pen to curl.
So much easier than trying to curl ribbon!
To top off your gift wrap, you can add a tag, or use markers to write directly on the paper!
