Easy Handmade Gift Wrap!

Is the front of your fridge full of wonderful art created by your kids? I’m starting to have that problem! My little guy absolutely loves to draw and I’m running out of room to display everything.  I hate to have to throw away these mini works of art.  So we’ve come up with a plan!

This year, we are going to use those awesome doodled papers as gift wrap!  Want to do it too?  It’s super easy! If you have older kids, you can get them involved also… Maybe they can decorate their own gift wrapping paper! The possibilities are endless!

Stuff you’ll need:  Doodled paper, tape, gift and a bow (optional)

Just wrap your present with the awesome artwork by your little artist!  This is great because it will give your gifts that awesome handmade touch.

Oh, and be careful with leaving the little ones with markers… Ours usually end up in the little guy’s mouth!

Want more great inspiration?  Head on over to Anna at In Honor of Design, and Jodi of Simply Sublime for more awesome ideas!  Special thanks to Grace for the challenge!

    Many times I’ll keep the wrapping of packages. I’m sure this would be one of those. {:-D
