A Series of Stripes

Do you like to use decorative tissue paper? I like to use them to line gifts before I put them in a gift box or bag, as an extra layer before the surprise is revealed. I sometimes use them as the actual gift wrapper too. That's why I have a few left overs just waiting to be used.

To avoid creases and tears, roll them up. Secure the ends with tape or tie a ribbon around it. Keep them in an empty jar or inside a properly labeled box.

The tissue sheets are fun for crafting. Turn them into lanterns, flowers, mood lighting, votive holders or placemats. Today, we'll use them to dress up a blah piece of card stock.
