We Wreath You a Merry Christmas - Part 3 - SNOWBALL FIGHT! has been delayed due to a shortage of supplies {oh no!}. Supplies have been replenished and as soon as Tiny takes a nap I will work feverishly to finish it so I can post it tomorrow. Don't fret!
In the meantime, I wanted to share some super cute ideas for wrapping all of your holiday loot.
Martha Stewart rarely disappoints with her ideas {of any kind}. Love buttons and love baker's twine, so it makes sense that this would be a favorite. Check it out HERE.
I adore itty bitty bows and Good Housekeeping shared THIS idea. I have purchased a pack of 9 in gold and silver from the dollar store before, might want to check it out if you like this.
Monogrammed gift wrapping adds a nice personal touch. This collection of ideas comes from Martha Stewart, Better Homes & Gardens, Martha Stewart {again}, and Good Housekeeping. I particularly like them because you could probably use things you already have in your stash {no extra trips to the craft store where you will probably find countless other things you want and end up spending $75 when the supplies you went for were $5 - this NEVER happens to me... *nervous cough*}.
Yarn pom poms! So sweet! I know you have yarn. If you don't have kraft paper you could always use tissue paper {who doesn't have a pile of that around?}. Found this at Art Design Studios HERE.
Simple and wholesome. A quick knit or crochet away from a homemade "ribbon." I love this! I found it HERE at Miss Yellow Shoes, but the link she listed did not lead me to the original work {sad face}. If you know where this came from let me know!
Yard waste put to good use! I love when I can use things from my yard to make pretties! I happen to have a bag of pine cones sitting in my craft closet that we collected to make a Thanksgiving wreath HERE. Found this idea at Home Klondike HERE.
Love polka dots! You could easily put a little gold topper on each of these to make them ornaments or use snowflakes instead. Precious! Who wouldn't love getting this present? I found this at Design Sponge HERE.
Another pom pom idea? Geez. I have a lot of yarn so I think that is what is drawing me to these. This one is just a bit different since the pom poms are hanging. I think it would be super cute to hang a monogram made from wire with the pom poms too. Eeee! I am going to use this one! Found it at Two Shades of Pink HERE. I LOVE her bunting wrap too!
This final one is my own creation. We went to Jozie Lou Who's 2nd birthday party yesterday {ADORABLE party theme, by the way} and this was how I wrapped her itty bitty books. Super simple and these were things I had in stock. Just a few sheets of tissue paper, some white yarn, a tag shaped hole punch, red cardstock, a white pipe cleaner and a red pipe cleaner. WA-LA!
Happy wrapping everyone!
