Gift Packaging Ideas No. 2

More gift packaging ideas showing how creative some people can be.  Often using items we might discard, now it's time to get inventive & reuse what we have at home.   There are so many ways to jazz up plain paper, so time to get out the white & brown paper & start decorating.

A cute idea that was used for Christmas but could be used for any occasion:

A clever use of duct tape to make a bow:

Gift Packaging Ideas

I love the idea of making your own gift packaging, not only fun to make but the recipient also gets to appreciate something different & personal.  It's amazing how plain brown & white paper can look once decorated with items you probably have at home, a good way to use up those bits & pieces you don't know what to do with.

Take a look at these fantastic ideas:
