Handmade Holidays — Festive Wrapping Paper
The girls and I made some wrapping paper this afternoon. It was so much fun, and a real team effort! We used ordinary brown grocery bags, and cut them to lay flat on the table. First, Clara got to work making “snowflakes” with her finger dipped in white washable paint. She loved it!
Next, the paper was passed along to Emily to stamp snowflakes using a white stamp pad…
…and she drew snowflakes using a white crayon. Later, it was passed along to me and I added a few more stamps as well — just for fun!
We were quite busy making our gift wrap “assembly line” style!!
I think it turned out looking great! When it was all dry…..
I got to work wrapping the gifts (with lots of pride)!
We are counting down the days until Christmas, and wrapping a few gifts with our handmade wrapping paper helped get us into the spirit of the season. Hope you are all getting ready for a fun holiday!!
