I’m a packaging saver…envelopes, tissue paper, bubble wrap…you name it…I have a neatly packed bag full of it!
Why recycle when you can upcycle…right?
This year I decided to raid (some of) my packaging stash:
and create my own super simple gift wrap…
Here’s how it’s done:
Choose a piece of packing paper or part of an envelope or tissue paper or bubble wrap, fold it in half & measure the size you’d like your final wrapped gift to be.
Cut it out
Open your folded paper & turn down all of the edges 1 – 2 cms.
Re-fold your paper in half and stitch it together leaving an opening at one end.
Decorate the outside of your sewn package & place your gift inside. (I used an adorable Victorian envelope printed from the fantastic Graphics Fairy)
Stitch the open end closed.
…add some fabric ribbon & pop it under the tree!
