Stamp It

Are you tired of the usual traditional wrapping paper and gift wrapping prints?  Make your own by stamping your paper. 

My favorite thing is you can even create your own personalized stamp.  Maybe it’s the recipient’s initials or a special memory or fun joke between you and the recipient. 

The ideas are endless. This is one of my favorite ways to make custom paper or a gift bag.

  1. Create a patterned or elegant gift wrap with simple materials
  2. Dip your rubber stamp in a colored ink pad
  3. Stamp it onto your gift.

What You Need:

  • Kraft wrapping paper
  • Rubber stamp
  • Inkpad

Functional

If you want a functional and economical gift at the same time, a good idea is to use a shirt and a broach. This is also a great project to upcycle old clothes.

  1. Wrap the gift with a shirt
  2. Finish it off with a pendant or brooch

With this great idea they get three thoughtful gifts in one.

What You Need:

  • Shirt
  • Brooch

Perfect Model

  • Kraft wrapping paper
  • Photo

Back In Time

Let them remember the most important day of your lives.  Wrap your gift with a sheet from an old calendar, old newspapers, or encircle the significant date.  This is not only super cute and sentimental — it is also very cost effective!

What You Need:

  • Old calendar
  • Washi tape

Krafty

  • Toy
  • Construction paper
  • Kraft wrapping paper
