Frugal Gift Wrapping Idea

I am just terrible with keeping gift wrap on hand{I usually have gifts on hand though, weird, I know}.  This wrapping idea is a inexpensive and frugal gift wrapping idea.
It never fails that one of my kids are heading to a birthday party and I am in a pinch with ZERO wrapping paper.
 
Last week I put this little gift together. 
I just used a brown paper sack and wrapped the gift.  Then I remembered seeing this Super Cute Birthday printable over at eighteen25, so I printed it out and attached it to a piece of colored card stock and stuck it on the package. 
Then I just added some ribbon and stenciled
the birthday boys name on the side.
Such an easy way to wrap a gift and costs hardly anything to do!

  1. I love brown paper bag wrapping. My neice married last weekend – a very country wedding/colors were yellow and brown. I wrapped her gift in brown paper and tied a yellow ribbon around it, then placed a copy of their engagement photo (black and white) on the front!
    I got compliments from people that saw me drop it off!

  2. I had to laugh- I have half a closet of “extra gifts” but I never have any wrapping paper! :) Great alternative to wrapping paper idea!

  3. Very cute!! I'll have to remember this. :)

  4. Cute idea! How did you get the wrinkles from the bag out?
