My gift wrap skills are poor at best. :(<br /><br />Happy Christmas to you and your household, Rachel!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-22604228202271789732017-12-24T07:08:00.646-06:002017-12-24T07:08:00.646-06:00I've never used newspaper to wrap gifts, but t...I've never used newspaper to wrap gifts, but that is a great idea! And small gifts in book pages are cute. I've used plain brown craft paper in the past because I love the look, but still it takes me as long to measure, cut, and wrap a gift as to sew a few straight seams. Since time was short this year, the fabric bags I made were very simple, but next year, I might fancy some up with applique. Turn what was a chore into a project I enjoy! :)<br /><br />Merry Christmas, Carol!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-52602874620877043702017-12-23T11:26:57.836-06:002017-12-23T11:26:57.836-06:00I love your fabric bags and they are so useful too...I love your fabric bags and they are so useful too...actually a second gift.<br /><br />I haven't bought wrapping paper in probably 20 years. I DO read the newspaper and find ways to recycle it as much as possible...mulch...worm bedding and other uses. Every gift I wrap is in newspaper, however I do put ribbon on them. I wrap the kid's gifts in the funny papers.<br />Merry Christmas!<br />xx, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-28885560387140475872017-12-23T08:09:44.765-06:002017-12-23T08:09:44.765-06:00Oh dear.
