Hi everyone,
I'm thinking I would like to make Santa's presents look different that the normal presents under the tree.
My thought right now is to wrap them in Brown packing paper for an old-fashioned Christmas kind of look. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I might dress them up to look really special?
Here are a few ideas I've thought of:
- A stamp that says "Inspected by Elf #XXX, Elf Union, North Pole" (Found on Ebay)
-Using pretty ribbon in a select colour for each family member
-something involving pinecones, little bells, cinnamon sticks.
Any ideas appreciated! I've already wrapped DD's gifts in brown paper just in case she finds them again (and I wrapped six gifts for under $1 in paper!), but they look awfully plain and not very alluring for a child. I'm not dead set on the packing paper idea, so any other ideas are also appreciated.
Thanks
