SOOOOO many ideas! they have all thier xmas stuff in!

Here are my plans (saddo, yes i know, im aware its ok)
I have brown paper and will make my own wrapping paper using xmas stamp prints in red and white paint all over the paper. Then add gold or silver glitter over the paint bits before they dry.

Then the presents will be wrapped in the paper and tied with norwegian style red and white reindeer pattern or other ribbon in large bows with small golden bells tied to each gift! I cant wait, bring on Tuesday!

I need to calm down. and breathe.

Lining paper is a good wrapping paper as well

It sounds so fab! I think I might do it too!! Did they have a range of stamps in there?

I am strictly rationed on the number of times I can visit Hobbycraft, knittedbreast. There is just too much temptation there, and I am weak.

I like the idea of printing christmas wrapping paper, but I suspect it's one of those things that I'd buy all the stuff for and just not get round to.
