May starts a very busy celebration season for us. Birthdays, Mother's Day, anniversaries and graduations...one after another. I love giving gifts! Picking out the perfect thing for that special someone. Now-a-days, it is hard. Money and gift cards may be the gifts of choice. But to me, they do not feel very personal. I get it, people LOVE them! I am a firm believer that it's the thought that counts. I decided that I will make the outside of the gift count. I created my own wrapping paper with kraft paper, acrylic paint and a potato. I just wanted a small polka dot pattern and a little Russet works perfectly. I sliced it in half and dipped it into the acrylic paint. Let it dry. Check out my tutorial showing how I used this technique on my homemade printed buffs.
Watch my video tutorial on how to dress up the package with a cupcake liner flower. Super easy and beautiful. Maybe Mom would like one on her gift this Sunday!
