Forget the store crowds, make your own wrapping paper!
I had one last present to wrap but no more wrapping paper! I didn't feel like battling the store crowds for a simple roll of paper so I decided to make my own from items I already had =).

Step 1Depending on how much paper you need choose a paper bag. I had a few from my local ALDI store and one was more than enough.
Cut down the side and cut the bottom completely off. You should end up with one long sheet.
-
Step 2I also found some left over cardboard from a box onto which I traced my baby's hand.
You can use your own hand or if you're really good, free draw it. It doesn't have to be perfect since you only need the silhouette.
With a sharpie trace the cardboard hand with the fingers pointing down.
-
Step 3The consistency is up to you. You can trace them closer together or more spaced apart.
This is what mine looked like when I was done.
-
Step 4Now to start drawing Santa =).
1. Draw a circle on the end of the thumb.
-
Step 52. Draw a squiggly line as shown.
-
Step 63. Draw a line connecting the thumb with the squiggly line.
-
Step 74. Draw another squiggly line under the first.
-
Step 85. Now draw a half circle as shown.
-
Step 96. Finally give Santa a face. I gave him red lips =).
-
Step 10This step is optional. After all the Santas are drawn I color in their hats with a red sharpie.
-
Step 11This step is also optional. Fill in the spaces between the Santas with a decoration. I simply drew swirls with a green sharpie.
-
Step 12Finally all you have to do is wrap!
