Gift Wrapping #2 - DIY

Quick post. One more sleep till Santa comes and hopefully you have wrapping up the presents by now but I thought better late then never for this post huh.

So for my presents this year I got a few rolls of wrapping paper, some twine, an assortment of ribbon and I made my own tags from a free template by Lia Griffith. If you would like the same ones click here .

Lay out your materials of paper, ribbon, tags, sticky tape, scissors and anything you would like to add. I had a lot of presents to get through so I went for a minimal but effect approach and I was really happy with the turn out.

The twine gives the glamorous paper a more rustic but chic vibe.

Boxes are the easiest to wrap. Just fold the sides over and follow these photos for the other two edges.

For ribbon I measure across the width of the presents times four plus extra for the depth and the bow. You will get the hang of it after a few goes.

How cute is this present. Silicon ice block molds, just perfect for little ones and older kids in the summer! 

Co-ordinate the ribbon to match the paper. I had a few colors too choose from; pink, purple, blue, silver etc. which I matched to the paper and the person receiving the gift.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!
