Joy to the world-I’ve finished most of my holiday shopping! Now I’m excited to get wrapping and enjoy the packages under the tree before the gift giving begins. The Glitter Guide and Decor8 recently posted some fun gift wrap ideas using materials that you probably already have around the house. My original plan was to use some recycled brown postal wrap & bakers twine and a few stamps if I’m feeling crafty. These new ideas might send me into a wrapping frenzy this year! Check out some of my favorites below.
