BACK TO CHRISTMAS CRAFTS
Candy Bar Gift Wrap - Dress up your Christmas candy bars and chocolate barks with this elegant idea.
Colorful Handmade Gift Wrapping Paper Tutorial - I had the idea to make these colourful giftwraps a few years ago. Their structure makes it easier to wrap even unevenly shaped things, they are easy to make (also kinda relaxing:-) and look pretty pretty. The only disadvantage is that it takes a day for them to dry.
Gift Wrapping Paper Craft for Kids - Wrapping paper usually hides gifts, but this wrapping paper craft is a gift all on its own. Kids can decorate this paper craft with any design they like.
Greenest Wrapping Paper You Can Make (for free!) - I decided to take advantage of a free resource to wrap most of our Christmas presents: old blueprints! I called a local contractor who was more than happy to share stacks (and stacks) of old blueprints with us. These white papers, measuring 2×3 feet each, had print on one side. They were also destined for the garbage can – which means they met our green wrapping paper challenge.
How to Make Lego Print Wrapping Paper With Your Kids - You and your kids can use brown wrapping paper, Crayola poster paints, and Duplo Legos to make this printed paper. In order to make the print, you first put paint on the top of the lego to make the circle print. To make the block portion of the print, you flipped the Lego over and printed the outer square “on top” of the circles.
How to Make Wrapping Paper with Craft for Kids - There is no need to buy wrapping paper at the store, especially when making your own at home can be so much fun.

Gift-receivers will feel even more special with these paper crafts made by kids of all ages. Kids can create wrapping paper crafts with original designs using paint, sponge, kitchen tools, and photographs. The results are so nice, kids might not want to give them away!
How to Make Creative Gift Wrapping Paper with Kids - Christmas TreeMaking your own wrapping paper is a fun activity that children or adults can do. With some creativity you can create gift wrap that is unique and different – everyone will know the gift is from you! When making gift wrap with children you will probably want to use either craft white paper or craft brown paper (like the grocery bags). You could even use the inside of a grocery bag if the gift is small enough.

Make Your Own Eco-Friendly Christmas Wrapping Paper - The last posting date is upon us (eek!), we've bought (almost) all our presents and wrapping them up will soon become a priority.

Here are some suggestions for making last minute, greener wrapping paper of your own, using items you already have at home.
ReWrap - Recycled Wrapping Paper and Bow From Scrap Paper - Turn scrap paper into wrapping paper in a few easy steps.

The wrap can even be a slight hint to what's inside. And better yet - maybe the gift inside is handmade or recycled.
Rubber Stamped Gift Wrap - Rubber stamped wrapping paper can be a quick and easy way of creating unique wrapping paper to make a present that little bit more special.
