Gifts to make: packaging
If you're going to make a handmade present, you may as well get creative on the packaging, too. Some fun ideas:
Gift card box by Heather Bailey
Monogram gift tags at Martha Stewart (pictured above)
Origami box at U-Handbag (and if you don't have any patterned paper you like, browse here and print some yourself)

That's a great way to make a gift look unique! Thanks for the tip!
I love the monogram gift tag idea. Must remember this!
*sigh* If only I had time to make those neat things. Don't expect your gifts to be wrapped very prettily, Boss! ;-)

Awesome! It’s a great way to make a gift look unique!
Why are you so awesome? I am off to cut up some Target bags for the pom-poms....
I love these ideas! Thanks for posting!
what a great idea!!!
Love the monogram gift tag idea, too. Tags are always one of those things that I struggle with!
I love all these ideas! I can't wait to make monogram tags. I made Creature Comforts plastic bag bows out of all my old saved plastic bags - they look great!
My favorite is Martha's gift tags. This will be my way to "monogram" my tags this year.
What fun ideas! Thank you. I love initials on the boxes. Last year my sister in law made tags by cutting out decorative paper and sticking a nicely cute out picture of the recipient in the middle of them. I think I'll do a combo of the initials and the picture tags this year.
I LOVE THIS IDEA! I'm using plain, bright colored wrapping paper for Christmas gifts this year (Ikea - clearance) and this will look wonderful with it!
I like the monogram gift tags!
Fail not to call to mind, in the course of the twenty-fifth of this month, that the Divinest Heart that ever walked the earth was born on that day; and then smile and enjoy yourselves for the rest of it; for mirth is also of Heaven's making. your family Happy Holidays and a great and prosperous new year!
