I’m not one of those people who expertly and meticulously wraps all their Christmas presents. I don’t have the patience and I’m too ham-fisted. So what I need is easy ways to do it. Ways that will make it look like I’ve made an effort, even if it took me three minutes flat.
Behold, ten stupidly easy wrapping ideas that not only look awesome but are so simple even I could recreate them.
If you blind them with neon, they won’t notice if you’ve done a crappy job

I’ve had quite a few things from Norman’s Printery before now for craft projects and the galaxy paper is amazing, and delivery is super quick. Would recommend! Although I’ve never actually used it for wrapping
Just made a ‘I Love you..’ ‘I know.’ Star Wars quote picture using the galaxy paper!
Making fabric bags is quick and simple (if you have access to a sewing machine and can sew something that somewhat resembles a straight-ish line!) and it makes wrapping presents beyond easy! My mom used to buy fabric on clearance (after Christmas is the perfect time for any holiday prints) to make the bags, then we just reuse them year after year! Some of the bags are about 25 years old already, and still work perfect!
LOVE LOVE LOVED This post, I want to do them all!! http://www.mumswearlipstick.blogspot.com.au/
