Add a personal touch to your gift wrapping this year! Here are a couple of my favorite simple and low cost wrapping ideas. You'll probably find a lot of these materials around the house.
Get out those scrapbooking stamps and stickers to decorate plain color paper.
You can use yarn, rickrack and ribbon from the craft closet to tie up your packages.
Use buttons to stamp designs on paper, or glue them to handmade gift tags.
And get the kids involved by having them draw and color designs on plain paper. You'll have original artworks to wrap your gifts!
I often use recycled Christmas cards to make my own gift tags and package decorations. I love this idea from MarthaStewart.com, using recycled holiday greeting cards to make your own gift boxes.
