Kraft paper

Sweet Paul says: I always loved wrapping presents in kraft paper.
Its something so nostalgic about it.
The small gift is wrapped and tied with red wool yarn.
The tassels are made by twining the yarn around two fingers; tie in the middle and cut the sides. Tie to the two yarn ends.
The large red pom-pom is made the same way, twine the yarn around four fingers; tie in the middle and cut the sides.
The white center is a small pom-pom hot glued in place.
Button gift is tied with thin metal wire and the buttons fasten to the wire.
The large gift is wrapped in kraft paper and a vintage cherry hat decor hot glued on top.

Home made paper.

Sweet Paul has made his own wrapping paper: This holiday Im all about making my own paper.
This idea is a smash hit, if I might say so myself!
Find all your holiday photos, old and new and make them into a collage by simply placing them next to each other on a printer.
Now take that print and go to a print center and copy up larger sheets.
They are quite inexpensive.
You now have your very own holiday wrapping paper.
Cool right?
