So………this is my first “video post.” It is quite embarrassing but I think you might like it. I just need to get over the fact that I never see myself speak and that running to turn on and off the camera is inevitable until I have my own show…and who knows when that will be. ;)
So…if you ever wondered what I sounded like or how often I talked with my hands or how Californian I am…well, now you no longer have to wonder…
Anyways…back to the post…in the video I show how to use some household items to make frugal gift wrapping look fab! No money spent whatsoever! Yay for free! (Jumping up and down!)
How do you save money on gift wrapping?
You're adorable, silly! Good job.
ReplyDeleteThese ideas are so cute! And so are you! I'll definitely use them.
ReplyDeleteUm...the ideas I mean...grammar fail.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Ashley! I love the natural look - - I frequenly use the rolls of brown paper from the dollar store to wrap gifts. Now, I'll just collect paper bags too. Love this post!
ReplyDeleteCute ideas!! Love the pine cones! And, you are seriously the cutest thing ever! I love "getting to know" blog friends just a little bit better & videos are such fun! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI love the look of brown bags for wrapping! as for saving, I don't yet. I'm waiting until my kids are a little older and over loving that whole ripping paper to shreds thing. I cannot wait for that day, I hate wrapping all those presents, I plan on making fabric gift bags for the gifts in the future
ReplyDeleteOkay, you are adorable! LOVE the skirt. :) I'm doing our gifts in kraft paper and glittery ribbon this year. :)
ReplyDeleteI knew you would be just adorable! I love you took the time to share with us.I also love the natural gifts wrapped, I also like to use inexpensive scarves, placemats, doilies that I purchase when on clearance or really good sale price.
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays sweetie
They look really nice. I'd go get some pine cones but I'm under 6 inches of snow right now.
ReplyDeleteBTW, you are adorable.
Have a wonderful holiday!
Man you area already a pro at this stuff, Ashley! You could be the next Martha Stewart!! Oh I've been away far too long....CONGRATULATIONS on your marriage...such wonderful pictures. Meanwhile, my life is chaos. Lol! Hope you have a wonderful holiday season!! I will be back a little more often after the holidays. :)

Seriously, could you be any cuter? ;) What a great idea and so cute! Last year, we actually used paper bags to wrap my brother's and his family's gifts and the kids colored on it. Your gifts look great.
ReplyDeleteOhh so cute!!! I wish I has seen ur vid before I wrapped already (oh but next year....lol)
ReplyDeletethe gifts look great, I'd be impressed to recieve (or, okay, give) something that pretty!
ReplyDeleteYour video is great too, you're adorable. lol. <3
such fun! Love it! I wrapped several of our gifts with twine too. I never thought to bust out the tulle. I buy it in bulk at the flea market and never use it.
ReplyDeleteFound your blog a little bit ago . . . you are so cute! The packages turned out great. I'll definitely look for some pinecones to add to my packages, cause we don't any here in Phoenix :P
ReplyDeleteLove this idea. The wrapping looks great!
ReplyDeleteYou are adorable and your wrapping idea is great!
