Krafting Gift Wrap

The internet is loaded with great ideas for wrapping gifts.  I found several posts that struck a chord in my recycling soul.  The use of a single HUGE roll of brown Kraft paper and a roll of heavy duty clear tape does the trick for all your wrapping needs. And this Kraft paper is recyclable! Adding the fun and the color and bling and fru-fru is completely up to you and your creative genius.  I had a blast using a bunch of art supplies I keep on hand for just such a festive project.

Thanks, South Tulsa Living, for featuring my Living Green...one step at a time column for December's issue.  I loved doing the photo shoot for this one and only wish I'd had real gifts to wrap way back in October when I wrote this article.  That would have been too smart. 

Here's wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!
