Creative Conversion of Vintage Wrapping Sheet

What do you do when you must wrap in a hurry? You make do with what you have. Since I was in that situation a while ago, I did exactly that. I had this wrapping paper and didn't know what to do with it. It was just sitting there, you know, not doing any thing. I was to wrap in a hurry. Weigh these two down and you realize you will have to go with it. So, I grab the sheet and start a-wrappin!

The sheet was too pink so I decided to tone it down a bit and add some more bright colors. I cross-bowed fluorescent ribbon in yellow and green. Put a bunched-up flower made with silver wired ribbon and added a flower made on a loom. This is what it looked like:


Still not happy with the result, I grabbed some of my left-over net pieces. I had this amazing lilac shimmery net and wrapped the whole thing in it. I left the bunch out so that it looked pweettyy. This was the end result:

I was satisfied and so was the little girl who received it. Smiles all around! =)
