Looking for a fun and inspiring way to wrap your gifts this year? Skip the aisle at the local big box brand and make your own organic looking (and environmentally friendly) take on personalizing your best gifts!
Tip: In lieu of our cutting machine
, you can also prebuy die cuts, use a shape cutter or buy them premade- that choice is yours.
What you need
- Kraft Paper rolls (get more than one, we go through these like crazy!)
- Cardstock for cutting out shapes
1) Wrap your present in your brown Kraft paper.
2) Use your cardstock to cut out die cuts from your Silhouette
. If you do not have a Silhouette
, you can buy shape cutters, draw and cut by hand or even buy premade die cuts for just about any shape or situation.
I picked out some free shapes from Silhouette and printed out on my cardstock. I have to admit that I collect card stock like some people collect pens. I cannot keep enough of it on hand. After you have shapes, just let your imagination go wild. These few shapes I cut out inspired all these wrapping paper looks! Once you have the layout you want, just secure with a dab of glue and let dry.
This present is going to my in laws so I wont reveal what it is-
Another tip- not finished yet but Charlotte is painting the Kraft rolling paper and once its dried we will use to wrap up the other presents!
