Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! Can you believe that there are 10 more days until Christmas?? I finally got my tree up and decorated this weekend, and gosh – does it look and smell heavenly!!

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are featuring our easy fabric gift wrap ideas, just in time for your upcoming gift-wrapping sessions (complete with a cup of hot cocoa and your favorite holiday movie). If you’re like me, you’ve got a couple of last minute gifts to pick up… and never seem to have enough wrapping paper. Where does it all go? Haha. Well, no worries – because your overflowing fabric stash can help you out! So many pretty options to choose from, and it makes it that more special!

There are 4 unique gift-wrapping options we’re sharing with you! We’ve got all of your gift wrapping challenges covered. Click MORE to see the full tutorials.

FABRIC GIFT WRAP IDEAS

1) GIFT WRAP OPTION #1 – works well for any gift size

TOOLS/SUPPLIES:

• Kraft Paper
• Fabric of Choice (We chose our Alchemy Collection, SKUs 2143301 #3 and 2143303 #2)
• Gift Tag
• Twine or Ribbon

STEPS:

1 – Measure out and cut a piece of kraft paper, enough to cover your gift. Cut a piece of fabric long enough to wrap around the width of your gift. You can also choose to wrap your gift in fabric first, like tissue paper!

2 – Wrap your gift with the kraft paper! We like folding in opposite sides first, attaching a piece of tape to hold…

…and then folding in the alternate sides, like an envelope.

3 – Wrap your piece of fabric around the width of your present. We like having about an inch of kraft paper peaking through, at the top and bottom.

4 – Add a pretty piece of ribbon or twine around your present, along with a gift tag and voila – pretty as can be!

1) GIFT WRAP OPTION #2 – works well with any gift, from a jewelry box to an oddly-shaped toy!

TOOLS/SUPPLIES:

• Fabric of Choice (We chose our Flourish collection, SKUs 3240201 #1 and 3240204 #3)
• Gift Tag

STEPS:

1 – Optional step, but you can wrap your gift in fabric first (like tissue paper!). Cut out a large piece of fabric, enough to wrap around your gift.

2 – Place gift in the middle of your fabric. Take fabric corners of opposite ends, one in each hand, and tie them together. Do the same for the other two corners.

3 – Add a cute gift tag, and you’ll have the prettiest present to give!

1) GIFT WRAP OPTION #3 – works well with tubular gifts or something rolled (such as a sweater!)

TOOLS/SUPPLIES:

• Fabric of Choice (We feature our Winter Wonderland collection, SKU 6141506 #2)
• Elastic Bands
• Ribbon or Twine
• Gift Tag

STEPS:

An optional step, but you can choose to use more than one fabric to wrap. Just be sure to roll them together, with one on top of the other.

1 – Cut a piece of fabric, enough to wrap around your gift with loose ends. Roll up your gift!

2 – Tie both ends with elastic bands to secure, and then add some festive cheer with twine or ribbon.

3 – Such an adorable gift… and everyone will be curious as to what’s inside!

1) GIFT WRAP OPTION #4 – works well with tubular gifts or something rolled (such as a sweater!)

TOOLS/SUPPLIES:

• Fabric of Choice (We’ve chosen our With Love collection, SKUs 4142001 #1 and 4142006 #3)
• Ribbon or Twine
• Gift Tag

STEPS:

1 – Cut a piece of fabric large enough for your gift. You may choose to wrap your gift in another piece of fabric, like tissue paper!

2 – Place your gift in the middle of the fabric. Start with opposite sides together…

2 – Fold in the two other ends, tucking in the sides like an envelope.

3 – Tie ribbon or twine around your present, creating a pretty bow on top!

4 – Add a gift tag for that special someone. How lovely!!
