Wrapping Wednesday:Making Butcher Paper Beautiful!

Good Morning! And happy Wrapping Wednesday!

Today, I'm sharing with you some great ideas on how to turn plain, old butcher paper into a beautiful gift wrap! Now, I'm a sucker for bright, shiny wrapping paper, but sometimes I just don't have the money to go buy new wrapping paper for every party. Here are some ideas to help spruce up some basic butcher paper, simply by using things you already have!

This is an example of what you can do with extra fabric and stickers! Super cute! And pretty easy to accomplish!


In this example, the crafter used old birthday/Christmas cards to spruce up the basic butcher paper! So clever! The last box on the left hand side, is ingenious! Newspaper, lace trim, button and saftey pin! Done!! So cute!

This is probably the cheapest fix for plain butcher paper! Paper Doilies! We all get them around the valentine season, but why not use them all year round? This is what I call Country Chic!!

I LOVE polka dots! So for me this idea is great! Take butcher paper, a ink stamp pad and a pencil, and start stamping away!

Now this is awesome!! Decorating with Hard ware store items!! Great for Father's Day or even Christmas gifts for the men in the family! Nuts & bolts, to tape measures & metal discs, this just goes to prove that you can use anything to decorate a gift!


I hope that you can take these tips and use them for your wrapping needs!!

Happy Wrapping Wednesday Everyone!
Many Blessings!
