We recently ransacked mom’s storage supplies (she wasn’t too thrilled about this DIY initially), & found 4 household items, which can be used to make creative wrapping paper: bubble wrap, plastic sheets, aluminum foils & butter/tracing paper. Each when used, leaves a unique pattern on the wrapping sheet. Which in turn, leads to so many possibilities with colors, designs and gifting!

Measure the aluminum sheet to the size of the white sheet. Take about double the length of the sheet and crumple it.
Dampen the paper with 1 layer of water. Not too much or the paper will start tearing.
Quickly daub paint onto the wet paint and mix before it dries. Move fast!
Gently press the foil on top of the paint and let it dry.
Once the paint has dried up (takes 5-6 hours), gently lift the foil. And the paper is ready!
