Easy Gift Wrapping Ideas

I’m all about Easy Gift Wrapping Ideas for Christmas! It’s easy to make a DIY gift bag from a simple paper lunch sack. These Christmas wrapping ideas are simple, cute and stylish!

These DIY Gift Bags are perfect for me. I’m a lazy crafter. I like quick crafts with little fuss that look amazing! I wish I had the attention span to spend hours on a project, but I don’t. I also hate gift wrapping. It never turns out the way I want. My expectations outweigh my talents. Because of my lack of gift wrapping detail, I have perfected the gift bag. I use simple kraft paper bags…………. lunch sacks. They’re my favorite, and perfect for a quick gift to a neighbor or a teacher.

I also love printables. I combined my love of printables with my love of kraft paper bags. My Holiday Cheer printable is back by popular demand because it’s so dang cute. I decided to shrink it down to use for a different purpose other than framing it. Thinkin’ outside the box……. Looks pretty cute!

Below, I also used a holiday candy bar wrapper from my friend Marlynn at Urban Bliss Life. Shrunk it down and used scalloped scissors to make a decorative edge. Simple. Didn’t take a ton of time, but once again……..so so cute

Another simple way to create an awesome gift bag is using unconventional materials. We’re already using a lunch sack, so why not also use other paper goods that you normally wouldn’t.
