Went a little crazy this year and hand made ALL my Christmas wrapping. I used some Higgins® Black Magic® Ink (watered down for a gray color) and Ikea Måla paper (from a roll) and started scribing with a paintbrush
Fa la la on long swaths of the paper.
I was just going to wrap with it, but then there was enough left from which to make gift bags. (As seen on the left.) I made TWELVE of them. TWELVE. A little crazy maybe should be changed to a lot crazy.
And THEN I was having so much fun I scribbled MORE
Fa la la's on some black paper with watered down white paint, to make boxes to hold some decidedly DELICIOUS and addictive
Nutella truffles with Frangelico from
MyBakingAddiction.
Using eyelets in the lid, I strung black ribbon through it to create a loop pull. It made the perfect little container for the truffles. What a great presentation. I
used this tutorial to make the boxes—which I love because this method doesn't leave any crease marks in visible areas of the box.
(There's some yummy
cranberry orange bread from here wrapped up in the photo below.) Isn't everything so lovely?
Now, you can go make your own wrapping paper!
