All of the tuto­ri­als are from the Finnish blog Oh Pack­age!, one of our new favorite go-to sites for cre­ative pack­ag­ing ideas. Be sure to check out the fab gift wrap and sup­plies in the online shop as well!
Now let’s get wrapping…
DIY Gift Wrap Ideas: Multicolor Twine Knots
DIY Gift Wrap Idea #1: Mul­ti­color Twine KnotsIt’s so fun to col­lect col­or­ful baker’s twine that you end up with far more than needed for cook­ing. Plus who wants to get turkey juice on candy-striped bak­ers twine? It’s too pretty for that! So why not dress up a card­board box or Kraft paper with it? It looks so fes­tive that it works for almost any occasion.

DIY Gift Wrap Idea #2: Washi Tape Mono­gramAny excuse to col­lect rolls of col­or­ful Washi tape is a good one. What a great, easy way to per­son­al­ize a package—and you get to avoid wor­ry­ing with a tag.

DIY Gift Wrap Idea #3: Braided YarnWho knew a sim­ple weave of yarn could look so mod­ern? Get­ting the recip­i­ent to bust through this pretty pack­ag­ing will take some convincing.
DIY Pinwheel Bow

DIY Gift Wrap Idea #7: Cookie Cut­ter Tags
Acces­soriz­ing a larger gift with a mini gift is a fun way to hint at what’s inside or give a trin­ket that will be cher­ished, but is per­haps too small to be wrapped. Attrac­tive cook­ing uten­sils, orna­ments, or toys also work great.

  1. Five weeks ago my boyfriend broke up with me. It all started when i went to summer camp i was trying to contact him but it was not going through. So when I came back from camp I saw him with a young lady kissing in his bed room, I was frustrated and it gave me a sleepless night. I thought he will come back to apologies but he didn't come for almost three week i was really hurt but i thank Dr.Azuka for all he did i met Dr.Azuka during my search at the internet i decided to contact him on his email dr.azukasolutionhome@gmail.com he brought my boyfriend back to me just within 48 hours i am really happy.
