Christmas in Australia-Part 3

Is everyone sick of eating leftover turkey, chicken and ham?

Here are some examples of gift wrapping tecniques I tried this year. I used boxes with lids so the wrapping could remain intact, and so I can reuse the boxes year after year.

For my box, I made a poinsettia from felt, and used a tape measure ribbon.  I thought the ribbon was appropriate for me, seeing how I use one regularly,   The ribbon is from Typo by the way.  I found the paper at a florist shop.

I made this cute little rosette using strips of paper. For the white paper I used a decorative lacy punch. The paper is simply folded concertina style and fashioned into a circular shape.

I had alot of fun wrapping these.  Now it is time to face the big clean up, and start cooking for our New Years Eve party.
