DIY Rustic Christmas Wrapping

Half the fun of giving a gift is wrapping it, don't you agree? There are so many fun ways to personalize it and make it unique. Like these Rustic Wrappings that are SO easy to make!
As soon as it starts getting chilly outside, one of my favorite pieces of clothing to wear is a flannel. It’s so warm and cozy and the plaid patterns are just so cute. So it was only natural that I was inspired to use some flannel for a project.
Next up, cut strips of your flannel. I made them thick enough so you could still see some of the Kraft paper on the top.
I used a hot glue gun to attach the fabric to the boxes, only applying it on the bottom of the box where the two ends met.
I stained my little deer head using Minwax’s Dark Walnut. I didn’t bother sealing it with anything because it might make it harder to write on.
Use your twine and wrap it around your box, using the ends to attach your tags.
I refrained from writing anything on them for the purpose of the photos. I didn’t want my ugly handwriting to ruin them ;) I think some pretty writing in gold would be perfect though!
Enjoyed the project?
