Hello friends, Caroline here from @carolineace_bujo & the ambassador team.
Today I wanted to show you how to make and customize your own gift wrap using recycled paper. Be ready for a fun environmentally friendly tutorial you and your family can enjoy this holiday season.
For supplies you’ll gather items you probably already have in your home:
Packaging or kraft paper, this usually comes in your boxes if you have placed any online orders, or you can use paper bags from the grocery store too.
Any type of dried greenery or filler florals (I collected mine from an arrangement I had)
Some Twine, or ribbons
Scissors and tapeÂ
optional you can use the free template below for the design
Now let's get started!, the first step to customizing your gift wrap is to measure the paper so it fits perfectly over your gift like this:
Once you have cut your paper to the right size, you can begin to doodle over with your favorite pens. For this tutorial I will be showing you how I used the free printable below so feel free to start with that if you'd like!Â
I traced over the pattern with a dark brown color, and continued until the entire paper was filled.
Once my pattern has filled the entire paper, it is time to add some color, this is where you can use your gift receiver’s favorite colors for extra personalization.
Once you're happy with your final design, begin wrapping your gift, tip* I like using a tape runner for a seamless look.
Next is time to add the final touches, I added twine around it, dried greenery and I made a little name tag sticker.
And that’s all! You can use different colors, and different patterns to create customizable and personalized gift wraps for the special people in your life.
