How about a tip of the evening? Start saving those paper bags from your shopping experiences (if you are not using cloth or material bags). Why? You can make SUPER cute wrapping paper out of them and this is a cost-effective, green way to address the holidays! What You’ll Need: old brown paper grocery bags opaque white ink pen (shop) ribbon lace fabric measuring tape (you don’t mind cutting up) doilies twine or string tags (or card stock to cut for tags) scissors tape Do It: cut open your paper bags along the seams to create one big flat sheet. wrap your gift like you would a normally. decorate with various ribbons, pieces of your fabric ruler, doilies, twine wrapped around, or just draw some pretty little details like the string of stars or the cursive script in the pic above. finish with a little tag or just write the name with your opaque pen and let the giving begin!
