I finished my Christmas present sewing yesterday and tried to put my mind around boxing and wrapping. I no longer care for traditional wrapping paper and purchased gift boxes (such a waste). So this morning I grabbed some cereal and cracker boxes, some ribbon remnants from Michael's floral department, and some tissue paper I saved from a recent shopping spree.
I'm please with the result. I think these look interesting and scream "Green Christmas". I found a tutorial for turning a cereal box into a gift box
here. Once I got the hang of it they went pretty fast. Now I'm off to find some shipping boxes to recycle!

Wow! How clever and practical! I'm going to bookmark that link. Thanks!
I love what you did! I am not a fan of wrapping paper, and so I do lots of gift bags which I use over, and over - if it is something for the family - I don't take my gift bag back if I am giving something to someone outside of the family. LOL. This takes it to another level. Definitely will have to try this.
What a clever idea! Thanks!
Cute! :)
