home-made wrapping gifts

so you're getting ready for a friends birthday and you forget to pick up some cute wrapping paper or a cute bag to hold your precious gift in, no need to fret home-made wrapping gifts are my favorite. 
all you will need is:
~paper bag
~wax paper 
~any type of string or ribbon
~scissors 
~cloths pin


in this picture the wax paper is already formed. what you want to do it cut 4, 12 by 12 squares then stack them on top of each other. start at one end and fold like you're going to make a fan forward and backwards. then ones all folded together tie your spring or ribbon in the middle so it stays together. you can cut the ends if you would like a cooler design, I just cut mine round. 

next step is to place your gift into the bag, fold over the top of the paper bag, slowly unfold the wax paper until in ball form. then make a small hole on the top of the bag (use a hole puncher if needed) once in ball form, take the string or ribbon from the ball and pull it through the hole and tie so the ball sits on top of bag. then if desired take extra string or ribbon to hang down for decoration. 


all to do is take a sweet note and clothes pin it to the top then wah lah its all done!
