Supplies needed:
- Brown Kraft Paper
- Scissors
- Vintage Snowman Button Tags
- Paper Doilies
- Rosemary Sprigs from your garden
- Coordinating Fabric Scraps
- Jute
- Glue Gun
- Coordinating Ribbon
- Tape
- Scrapbook Double Sided Tape
- Christmas Stamps or Letter Stamps
This is just a list of things that I had in my craft room but it can most definitely be adapted to what you have available. Use any sort of greenery from your garden.
Handy Hint: When using greenery it’s best to leave that to the last day or so. This just keeps it nice and vibrant before you give your gift. Just complete as much as you can before step 4.
Rosemary Wreath Gift Wrap
Step 1 – Wrap all of your pressies in brown kraft paper. Think of it as your canvas to go to town with your creativity. Cut a strip of ribbon to go around the present. Fasten down with the scrapbook tape at the back.
Step 3 – Tie a bow in the same ribbon. Either print out the names or use letter stamps on paper and cut out to make name tags.
Step 4 – Using the Rosemary sprigs make a circle and glue the ends together. Glue to the present on the ribbon strip. Then glue the bow and the name tag.
Doiley Gift Wrapping Idea
You can keep this style very simple or add a Christmas Stamp to jazz it up.
Step 1 – After wrapping your present in Kraft Paper attach the doily the centre using scrapbooking tape. Tie around some jute and you’re done!
OR before tieing on your jute you can use a Christmas Stamp and stamp in the centre. Another idea is to use letter stamps and put the person’s name on the doily instead.
Vintage Snowman Tag Gift Wrapping Idea
Step 1 – Make up a few of my Vintage Snowman Tags.
Step 2 – Using your scrap material tie around your parcel to form a bow. I also cut a piece of jute the same as the material and had it on the outside of the material to add a bit of texture. Attach your snowman tag and some pip berries and pine sprigs.
There you have some simple ways to add that little something extra to your gift wrapping this Christmas!
Happy Wrapping!
Don’t have time to make now? Be sure to PIN for later 🙂

That’s so pretty Sam. Love the vintage look, I’d be happy just getting an empty box if the wrapping looked so gorgeous 😉
Aww Michelle! If you lived closer I would make that happen but with something special in it to show how grateful I am of meeting you through blogging!! Thank you for your sweet kind words! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
These are so cute, I love brown paper wrapped gifts. And those snowman gift tags are the cutest! I see that you’ve wrapped a gift for yourself too 🙂
LOL!! yes my hubby hates wrapping presents so I knew what this was and wrapped it!
All are beautiful. I think the one with the green little wreath is my favorite.

I think that is my favourite also Amalia! 🙂
Beautiful wrapping. If only I didn’t wait until Christmas Eve to wrap presents.
I know right?!? I use to do that but realised it is so much easier to do it as soon as you buy them and it’s so much more fun!
Love them, Sam. What inspiring and beautiful designs. I can’t wait to try them this holiday. I love the buttons one best!
Thank you, Carolann! Can’t wait to see what you do!!
