DIY Gift Wrapping

DIY Gift Wrapping

What you will need:
Brown Paper/Kraft Paper
String/Twine
Sticky Tape
Scissors

All of these items can be purchased from a discount shop or a craft store.


First of all, you will need to measure out the amount of paper you need for the gift you are wrapping. To do this just roll out some paper, place the gift on the paper and play around with it seeing if it is enough to wrap in. 
Once you know how much you need, cut the paper from the roll.
Now you can wrap your gift and use sticky tape to tape it together neatly.



Next you can either measure out some string or twine by wrapping it around your gift or just estimate how much you might need.
Cut the twine and wrap around your gift in a way that you like. You can tie bows on it if you want to or you can leave it knotted-it's up to you!

Now you should have your finished product! Continue this process with other items you are planning to wrap. 

 You can add bits and pieces to it if you like such as name tags or stickers, it's up to you. I left mine plain and simple just because I thought it looked nice like this. 




If anybody has any ideas they'd like to share I'd love to hear them! I'd also love to know if any of you have tried this out and how did it turn out?? 
Any requests leave in the comments :)
