Upsides to the Down Economy/ Wrap in Scraps




The other day I went to wrap a gift in a box and discovered the paper was too small for the box. Don't you hate when that happens? But, when I looked at the strip of paper around the box, it looked pretty cute. I taped the paper around the box, affixed a bow and voila! I was admired for my creativity, liked I'd planned it all along. Here is a photo of an example of what I'm talking about, so now you have a use for those small pieces of wrapping paper lying around. I wrapped this one with tulle (usually seen in bride's veils), but would leave it plain if the gift was for a guy.
