I used a coupon to buy a pinking edge for my rotary cutter. Now I make my own "ribbon" from scraps!

I have so much fabric in my stash and lots of dish towels on which to applique, I'm going to take some of these clever suggestions and make my own this year. Love the idea of gifts within gifts also. You folks have got me in the spirit.

I stick a card inside the tote I have made for the gift.

That's a really great idea. :-P

Decorate small and med size brown bags with pieces of christmas paper. I used some bags that I got from bath and body.

At the hardware store, you can buy a roll of brownish paper made for painters (they use it as a barrier with blue tape) which is very cheap and the roll is very long. It wraps up nice and you can add a great ribbon or stickers or let the kids draw on it.
