I got an email that someone was following me on Pinterest. I forgot I even saved these.
I had this in my Pinterest collection and thought since the holidays are coming up it would be fun to share some wrapping and gift ideas.

Lorie, I love that bird - think I will need to make myself one!!! It was an absolute joy to do for YOU!!!!
You can visit him in my photos :) I wuv him!
I love that ribbon holder idea! So simple and so clever. Gotta copy that; I already have some of those containers and a dowel stick around here.
Great ideas - thanks for sharing!
The best wrapping of a Christmas present was one year my DMIL wrapped our presents in beautiful, new bath towels and mad a bow out of the washcloths!
Another great wrapping is homemade pillowcases.
I was at my local quilt store buying some fabric to make pillowcases for the Cyber Elves. The owner mentioned that for the past 5 years or so, she makes a pillowcase for each of her grandchildren and then puts their Christmas presents in there and ties it up with a bow. I thought that was a cool idea.
The funniest wrapping I got was from my mom. She unrolled toilet paper and rolled it back up with $1 bills. lol
Every year I tell myself I will wrap the gifts as I bring them home. I never do. I usually end awake until 2 or 3 am wrapping everything and at that point getting them covered and labeled is the only goal.
I love the pretty/clever wrapping options but just don't think I will ever pull it off.
What a great idea for ribbon....now I need to head to Wal-Mart and get a little plastic tub and some dowel rods! I always have grand ideas for Christmas wrapping, and when I do get snazzy, our cats have a wonderful time playing with the jazzy packages. Darned cats - they would LOVE the feathers! Garden Ridge - we don't have one in Iowa that I know of, but when I go to Tulsa to visit DD, we ALWAYS stop at Garden Ridge - DH and SIL are never too thrilled. Imagine that ;)
