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.

DIY Heating PadI can’t even come up with an exhaustive list of reasons to make these as gifts. SO MANY REASONS! Heating pads are useful as is but by virtue of the fact that you’re most likely to use one when you’re not feeling so great, this is the PERFECT reason to use your cutest prints and remind someone that you care about them! Family members, bestie friends, teachers and other caregivers could all use the little warm snuggle from these.
