Need budget friendly wrapping paper this holiday season? You can make your own wrapping paper by recycling items you already have at home, not only will it be thoughtful, but it'll be one of a kind!
This is an example of a gift I wrapped with a brown lunch paper bag that was given to me when I bought wine at Sprouts. The stencil was made from an online order of holiday cards from Shutterfly and the rest of the supplies I already had at home.
You can recreate this concept not only for the holidays, but for any occasion. For example, make a stencil of a balloon when it's a birthday present, or anything you can draw and cut out from the stencil paper.
