Happy holidays A Blissful Nest readers! My name is Pamela and I am thrilled to be your guest blogger today. Rebekah asked me to share some fun ways to create easy and affordable packaging for the holidays, so here we go…
Keep it simple, I keep kraft and white boxes and bags available all year long.
You can decorate these items to match any theme by simply adding different colored embellishments.
A fun way to create a unique gift tag is by using a decorative Match Box.
Fill the Match Box with small candies for an extra surprise!
Add a sticker or write the recipients name on the front of your match box.
Fill with small candies for an extra surprise and hang with ribbon from the gift bag handle!
Gable boxes are everywhere and these MINI gable boxes in kraft are super easy to decorate with items found around the house.
Grab some bakers twine, a few buttons and a scrap of fabric or tulle.
Voila, slip a gift card inside for quick gift giving.
This green polka dotted petal box was a snap to decorate with a large letter “m” sticker and some red gingham ribbon. Fill with wrapped candy and instant hostess gift!
Last but not least, popcorn boxes. A great container filled with homemade goodies, like cookies, fudge or caramel corn. Wrap up the contents with wax paper or plastic wrap then pop it inside a popcorn box. Embellish your box with rubber stamps, rub ons or stickers then add a fun tulle and bakers twine bow!
As you can see, great things do come in small fabulous packages! Check out your stash of decorating goodies and see what fun and easy holiday goodies you can come up with.
Wishing you all the best this holiday season,
Pamela
