And That's A Wrap!




 Christmas wrapping paper can be expensive for something that essentially gets ripped off and destroyed in seconds !
There are lots of a creative ways to make your own for next to nothing ,if your willing to think outside the box simple things can look really effective .

 Old books /newspaper/ old comic books make great wrapping paper for small gifts.
Rolls of brown paper can be customised with glitter,potato prints(great old school activity for kids!)

 Buying ribbon in bulk is very cost effective .I bought two rolls of black ribbon from Calico Lane online haberdashery for my wedding invites, three years ago and I've just run out!

For an extra touch old style postage labels from the post office with a nice bit of calligraphy look amazing or alternatively invest in a 'Merry Christmas " rubber stamp,great for making easy cards too !
