Perfect Gift Wrapping Ideas - Review & Giveaway

The perfect little gift box! From Perfect Gift Wrapping Ideas: 101 Ways to Personalize Your Gift Using Simple, Everyday Materials by Hiroe Miyaoka. This is Chapter two's folded Gift Box, instead of newspaper I used 8 1/4" Kimono Pattern Origami Paper. I love the box's vibrant colors and crisp fold lines. It measures 3 x 3 x 1 1/2 inches deep and has a slightly bigger matching lid. You can easily make the box larger or smaller. Step-by-step photographs along with minimal text show you how. A wonderful resource for anyone who likes to present beautifully wrapped gifts using materials found around the home. Get your copy below!
