Handmade Gift Wrapping Ideas

December 18, 2015 | Leave a Comment

With the holidays coming fast and furious, I hope that many of you have checked off those on your list. I believe that the gifting experience starts at first glance. That means, the wrapping counts.

Special Ways to Wrap Handmade Gifts

Here are a few of my favorite gift wrapping ideas.

  • Use printable paper to make a statement with your gift.
  • Create a theme under your tree with fabric and twine.
  • Use leftover pieces of fleece to create this bow with your rotary cutter.
  • Reclaim a sweater for a cozy gift of comfort.
  • Keep little ones in line with these “Don’t Open Until” bags.
  • Give a hint of whats inside with vintage pattern ribbon.
  • Have a small item to wrap – consider a small drawstring bag.
  • Don’t forget to add a special tag to your gift.

Make sure your handmade gift looks amazing from the get go with these easy gift wrapping ideas.

5+ Modern Christmas Tree Skirts

December 1, 2015 | 2 Comments

Let’s face it, the Christmas tree can look bare and (ahem) naked until those presents are piled underneath.  Why not add a tree skirt?  When adding a Christmas tree skirt under the tree, think outside the box.  Your tree skirt doesn’t need to stick to the traditional red and green colorway.  Sewing modern Christmas tree skirts will guarantee that, your tree will be the talk of the town!
