    Marshmalloworld that is such a simple and great idea!
    I have to send most of my gifts out of the country, and homeland security doesn't want us to wrap them anymore, so I don't. When I give local folks presents, I just use those gift bags.

    I love using brown paper and thick green or red velvet ribbons tied in a bow.

    I have an aunt that uses ribbons like that or even fancier ones. She's creative and good at tying them and making them look nice. Maybe I will try that this year. I usually just wrap them, tie a simple one-color ribbon on, a bow (cheap ones) and a tag. I should do something different this year because I don't plan on buying too many gifts anyhow - low on funds:( Usually, I spend the money on the gifts and not so much the gift wrappings.
