Thanks to Scotch(R) Double Sided Tape for sponsoring my writing about crafts. Add your comment below to be entered for a chance to win free sample rolls to help with your upcoming holiday needs.
One of my favorite parts of giving gifts is the wrapping. I tend to be drawn to a more homemade version of wrapping paper, and this year is no different. And it doesn’t get much simpler than this!
To make your packages stand out in a crowd, here are the supplies you will need:
newspaper (or brown craft paper works well too)
Scotch (R) Tape or Scotch (R) Double Sided Tape
Baker’s Twine (mine is from the Twinery)
holiday tags (mine are from Joyful Joyful)
scissors
1. wrap your gift with newspaper
2. seal it up with Scotch(R) Tape or Scotch (R) Double-Sided Tape
3. flip it over
4. measure out your baker’s twine to wrap around your box
5. cut three lengths of baker’s twine
6.wrap all 3 pieces of twine around together as you would a ribbon
7. tie a bow
8. pick out a gift tag
9. attach the tag to the twine
voila! cute and crafty gift wrapping for the holidays!
you can also use these pretties as decoration! we have a pile of presents sitting on a table in our entry way along with a mini christmas tree and some other holiday decor.

I too am a wrapping nut. Double sided type looks sooooo much more professional than regular type.
This is such a cute idea! I always try to make my gifts look like a little work of are under the tree before they're completely ripped apart, and this is a great way how!
I love your gift-wrapping idea! I posted about gift wrapping today, too! So fun!

Love this idea! Who doesn't need tape?
I absolutely love your simple wrapping. I try to do something similar every year. I would love to win some tape!!
I love this idea! I think it would be great to use the comic section for kids packages!
I am always running out of tape at this time of year. Everyone needs an extra roll or two!
Love the idea's you have, double sided tape would keep the kiddies from peaking….
I love the idea of reusing something that is already on hand. Will definitely need to get some twine. Tape is always handy.
OHHH! How fun–what a cute way to wrap a gift:) And a fun giveaway too:) THANKS for the chance to win!

These packages are gorgeous! I just adore baker's twine, don't you? :)
what a great idea!! i bought almost the exact same twine from IKEA so i'll be trying this for sure!
I love your wrapping, so simple, yet so cute!
What beautiful packages! I love how "simple" they are, and the black, white, and red just pop!
Fun! Double-sided is always my favorite!
Wow. So simple but so very smart and pretty!! I just ordered twine from The Twinery so some free tape would be great!!!!
I love the Twinnery's twine! Your packages are adorable and I had already decided to use craft paper this year. I love your newspaper. Awesome.

Love this packaging. So clean and simple yet so pretty! LOVE adhesive!
How cute! Newspaper wrapping is always a favorite at our house and those letters really add a fantastic touch! What a great blog!
I like your aesthetic! Especially like how you tripled up the baker's twine to give it more 'oomph'. And how cool you're being sponsored! Definitely curious now…off to check out CleverGirls.
Love your wrapping! Very fun! I'm new to your blog and am loving having a look around!
Thanks for a chance to win some double sided tape!
