Supply List

This list is more of a suggestion, and is what I used. Feel free to use what you already have on hand.

The next time you go to the grocery store, ask for paper instead of plastic, and your wrapping paper will be free!

If you are using paper grocery bags, cut one open with scissors. If there is print on the bag, you can use the inside, which is print-free.

Wrap the gift in grocery bag paper as you would with traditional wrapping paper, but use hot glue instead of tape.

The hot glue holds the thicker paper together much better than tape does.

Next comes the fun part!

Stamp the recipient's name on the bottom edge of the gift.

Then wrap the red and blue yarn around, and around the gift, securing it in the back with hot glue.

I love the look with the two different colors of yarn. It really makes the gift pop!
