All Wrapped up - the Sequel

Since ya'll liked our first post on Christmas gift wrapping - we decided to do another! YAY. This DIY session involves dollies, tree branches and cinnamon rolls - you know, all the essentials. First up we have,

AN AROMATIC WRAP

What you’ll need:

• A sheet of kraft paper

• A pair of scissors

• A black ribbon

• Some fragrant herbs - I chose Rosemary cause it looks rad and smells delish

• Gift Tags

1. First take a sheet of the brown kraft paper and wrap neatly around your gift. Then pick your chosen herb, take a fairly sizeable amount, 2-3 inches long should do the trick and place to the side.

2. Now take your length of black fabric ribbon (DAINTREE have some gorgeous options) and wrap around the box, from top to bottom, intertwine and then loop back to the top and tie a small knot. Place your sprig of rosemary on top of the ribbon knot with your gift tag and then tie a bow on top of the herb to secure.

3. And there you have it - a beautiful wrapped and divine-smelling gift. As we edge closer to Christmas the rosemary/herb will wilt slightly and change colour but this adds to the unique element of this wrapping.

Next up, we have THE DIVINE DOILLY WRAP.

What you’ll need:

• A sheet of kraft paper

• A pair of scissors

• A red ribbon

• Pack of doilies

1. First things first, wrap your lovely gift with the kraft paper. Neatly does it! Then take a doily ( the size will depend on the size of your box) and wrap around one of the front corners of the box. Fold around the corner and tape flat - it should look like below.

2. Then take your length of red ribbon and from the top of the box, bring the ribbon down underneath, intertwine there and then bring back to the top of the box. Tie a bow.

3. Then take a black pen and simply write the gift recipients name directly onto the kraft paper underneath the red bow. Simple, Festive and Fun!
