Cheap & Easy DIY Holiday Gift Wrapping

December 9, 2014 By Allyson 6 Comments This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy.

I love wrapping gifts come the holidays, but I am just not that fancy bow type of wrapper. I like to come up with creative ways to wrap, but also not spend a lot of money. I really feel bad spending a lot of money on wrapping stuff that just ends up in the trash! I know, most people recycle and reuse bows, ribbons, and gift bags, but still, it’s a lot of waste and it’s a lot of money for something that just gets torn open! A few years ago, I started wrapping with brown Kraft Paper , which I LOVE! I ordered a HUGE roll from Amazon a few years ago, and I STILL have some left. I use it ...

Sometimes when you are a blogger, you have all these projects and recipes and things to do, and you do them, but then never get a chance to post them! I have tons of projects and recipes just waiting for a rainy day, because I haven’t had the chance to go through and edit, write a post, and do everything else that goes along with creating a blog post. I know most people probably think that writing a blog post is pretty easy, however, it’s not! The projects or cooking takes time, staging and taking the photos takes a lot of time, then editing the photos takes time….it all takes a lot of ...

I know we are well into fall now, and I probably should have posted this last month, but I just got around to taking pictures and thought it would still be nice to share!

Since we moved into our house last April (2012), I have had so many ideas on what to do with each room. First I tackled our living room, because I figured it would be the most frequented area of the house. While it’s still not done, I am happy about the projects I’ve done, and the progress we have made on it. Next, I did some work on the kitchen, and finally it was time to tackle the dining room. Here it is when we moved in (back left)….. We found the perfect table, and up next was decorating. I had a couple different ideas about hanging things, making ...
