It doesn’t take much extra time (or money!) to take your stack o’ presents from so-so to whoa!

If you follow my DIY adventures for very long, it is pretty easy to pick up on the concepts I return to again and again: lots of different textures, initials, simple and bold color schemes, and hints of pattern or glitter. So it’s no surprise that when it comes to wrapping Christmas presents, these are the techniques I use to make my presents and packaging pop.

And after spending time and money picking out the best gifts I can think of for my family and friends, I want them to look good sitting under the tree. It doesn’t take much extra time (or money!) to take your stack o’ presents from so-so to whoa! Taking the time to make each present slightly different is fun for me and makes them more interesting to look at leading up to Christmas morning.
