When it comes to wedding gift wrapping, sometimes simple is better. My favorite gift wrap is brown kraft type paper. It has a nice neutral background, and you can dress it up with almost any color and make it look awesome. For my sister’s wedding a few weeks ago, I used brown wrapping paper, lace, and my Silhouette to quickly wrap her presents.
I wrapped her gift in brown paper then cut beaded lace to wrap around the gift. I hot glued the lace to the back.
I then cut out the saying “Live Your Happily Ever After” in white vinyl with my Silhouette. I attached it easily with transfer tape.
For her second gift, I added a tiny chalkboard.

What an adorable idea for dressing up a gift! I, too, love dressing up plain brown paper. The chalkboard is a cute little addition!
Much Love,
Trisha D.
Great idea!
How pretty! I love the kraft paper and lace combo!
Very pretty! I’m a huge fan of Kraft paper too! I think I’m going to use kraft cardstock for the tag swap!
Thanks! I am too !
What a really cute idea! Love it!
I have been hearing a lot about these crafty machines. I need to look at them next time I’m at Jo-Ann’s.
I love it! Kraft paper is so fun, isn’t it? I love how you can really dress it up! It turned out cute!
What a unique and special way to wrap a present! I’ll have to try it some time!
Very creative and great job!!!
Love the Kraft/lace/white combination! Classy – ;-}

Love that lace!
I wrap everything in craft paper (much to my husbands dismay, I have 2 containers full of wrapping paper!) and I love how you decorated the packages, my favorite is the little chalk board
I, too, am in love with the look of brown-paper packages tied up with string…or in this case, lace! Such a creative wrapping job…it’s a gift in and of itself!
Love the white vinyl text with the lace and that chalkboard is very cute!
thats super pretty and elegant! what a thoughtful surprise!
Melanie I LOVE this wrapping paper! Simply gorgeous!
