Daily Idea #207: DIY Wrapping Paper

Now that Thanksgiving is behind us, allI can think about is gift giving. Whatever your tradition, the season of gifts is upon us. What better way to give a present then to wrap it with homemade wrapping paper?

All you need is paper slightly bigger than the dimensions of the box the gift is in and various items to decorate. I am going to use a big roll of butcher paper and then cutting each paper to size.

Lay out the paper and have each person either sit in front of one section of the butcher paper or their have their own piece of paper. Using your tools for decorations, have fun and create a pattern or a picture for your wrapping paper. There is no right or wrong way to do this. After everyone has finished, let it all dry and then when you are ready to start wrapping your gifts, you have this amazing homemade piece of art to give as well!
