Our final gift wrap idea of the week comes from How About Orange, which is one of our favorite blogs.
 Jessica Jones wrote up a great tutorial on how to make a gift bow from a magazine page.  All you need is a magazine page, staples, and glue dots (we used double sided tape, which worked too).  Her great instructions inspired us to make a whole batch of gift bows out of all different kinds of paper.

Here are the bows we recently made:

Whenever we have an interesting piece of paper that is at least  7″ x 11″ we’re going to save it for the next time we make a batch of gift bows.  Thank you How About Orange for the great tutorial!

  1. The choices of paper for making recycled bows are fresh and fabulous. Excellent and charming way to reuse paper!
