How to be creative on your Christmas gift wrap
Here’s another fun way to be creative with your Christmas gift wrap. By experimenting with the texture of Christmas decors, you can get a modern, stylish gift wrap perfect for Christmas! Here’s how I made it!
Materials:
Kraft Wrapping Paper
Invisible Tape
Artificial Christmas Pine Leaf
White Acrylic
Sponge Brush
Paint Palette (or you may use a simple plate)
Twine
Scissor
Step 1: Start wrapping your gift box with kraft wrapping paper and secure it with invisible tape
Step 2: Apply white acrylic on the flat surface of your palette. Then, flatten it using a sponge brush.
Step 3: Press one side of the pine leaf down onto the paint. Make sure you are covering most of the area of the side you are using.
Step 4: Dab the painted side of the pine leaf on the kraft wrapping paper. Try different angles for variation. Be sure sure to cover each side of the gift box. Let it dry.
Step 5: When it’s dry, wrap twine around the box. Make sure there are at least 5 inches of slack remaining at each end of the twine.
Step 6: To make the small wreath, cut two other artificial pine leaves and curve them into a circular shape. Attach them together using hot glue.
Step 7: Put the small wreath on the top of your gift wrap, and center it. You may simply glue the wreath on top, or use any leftover twine to wrap around the wreath to decorate it.
You may also attach a name tag with the twine you wrap around the wreath (as shown in the picture above). I recycled a cereal box to create my own tag for this Christmas gift. 🙂
