Are you done with your gift wrapping? I'm almost done. I usually HATE wrapping presents, but I have to say that I really enjoyed making wrapping a fun, crafty project this year. Instead of buying new supplies, I decided to use what I already have onhand. Good for my pocketbook, as well as my conscience.
Here's some of the stuff that I "found" in my craft room:
butcher paper "gift wrap" :: 2009 ikea gift wrap :: grocery bag strips :: upcycled xmas card tags :: baker's twine 
:: target bag pom-poms :: decorative scissors 
:: decorative punches 
:: decorative duct tape 
(at target for $3.69) :: doilies :: stiff felt snowflakes :: martha stewart gift tags :: trader joe's holiday bag "designs" :: old christmas sheet music strips :: scrapbook paper "bows" :: decorative buttons :: hole punch :: handmade fabric flowers (not pictured)
:: target bag pom-poms :: decorative scissors :: decorative punches :: decorative duct tape (at target for $3.69) :: doilies :: stiff felt snowflakes :: martha stewart gift tags :: trader joe's holiday bag "designs" :: old christmas sheet music strips :: scrapbook paper "bows" :: decorative buttons :: hole punch :: handmade fabric flowers (not pictured)
this was a great decorative "find": the trader joe holiday bag... fun!

Hope you're having a nice and stress-free week!
