Creative Christmas #7- Wrapping Green.

I love everything natural and green- in this post I'm showing you some eco- wrapping ideas.

As these wraps are super easy to make, I'll let my images speak for themselves.












For all of the gift wrapping ideas in this post, you'll need just a limited array of tools and supplies:

- Kraft paper
- Twine
- Adhesive tape (preferably paper)
- Burlap or jute ribbons
- Greenery, pinecones, berries, you could gather while taking a tonic stroll in the countryside on a crisp winter's morning! This would surely add to the pleasure of crafting green :) The red berries I have used in this post are Nandina berries and Holly
- Little embellishments (rusty bells, rusty snowflakes, wooden hearts, clay stars or tags, etc.)
- Scissors
- Hot glue and gun (to glue the pinecones in place)

I'm pretty sure the recipients of these gifts will be delighted to receive them as much as you'll be wrapping them!:)

  18. There is a person on Pinterest posting tons of your images with only a link back to her own board; very frustrating! I am glad you put your name on your images because I was finally able to find this page! Beautiful ideas, thank you so much!

    1. THANK YOU so much for letting me know! I even DON'T ALLOW PINNING! That's so crazy, she says contact me if proper credit hasn't been given, but there's no way to contact her anyway:)
