I hope you'll agree with me that handkerchiefs are lovely vintage treasures. You may have some hiding in your closet and there are many waiting to be purchased at flea markets and thrift stores. In the past two weeks, I've shown you how you can play around with these hankies and today I've got another idea for you.
We'll use these to package a few presents! 
Put your gift in the center of the hankie. 
Wrap the gift by neatly folding the edges and making a tight knot.No need for scissors, tape or ribbon!
Embellish as you please!Here, I added a rose-print button.
Or put on some bling like this brooch that complimentsthe color of the handkerchief.
Complete the present with a gift enclosure and some cheerful wishes.
Now you've got a pretty present inside & out!
Plus gift wrap that can be used all over again.
