I love wrapping beautiful gifts – nothing tells the recipient how much you care quite like a beautifully wrapped present. Plus if you have kiddos that love crafts, wrapping gifts together can be a great family activity.
I thought I would put together some creative yet simple gift wrap ideas to inspire you this holiday season. Many of these are using plain and simple brown kraft paper. I have rolls and rolls of this because it can be transformed so easily. You can find it in the paint department of the home improvement stores, at the Dollar Tree (near the envelopes and shipping supplies) or at Target in the shipping supply department or in the Dollar Spot.
If you prefer something bolder or brighter, these ideas can easily be translated to patterned paper or bright red/ gold or even chalkboard gift wrap.
