Fathers Day Gift Wrapping Ideas

Great kids-friendly ideas to make the presents look fun!

Time to get crafty for the Fathers Day with these gift wrapping ideas! What an easy way to elevate the gifts and make them look even more thoughtful! All supplies that you’ll need are super affordable and mostly recycled. I just love to reuse materials that have already served their purpose. You can usually still come up with a couple more ways to use them.

You’ll need:

• some old paper for wrapping
• scrap fabric and scrap yarn
• twine
• sticky tape
• a black marker
• a pair of scissors

Fathers Day Gift Wrapping Ideas

To make the smiley face, all you need is to wrap your present in a paper, draw the face and add a piece of twine to create a bow. Then wrap another present and use some scrap yarn to create a simple woven design. You can me it as wide and as colorful as you like! Another lovely way is drawing a moustache, cut a couple of small holes in it and use a piece of twine to attach it to a wrapped present.

To create a shirt design you only need two 1 1/2 x 6 inch (depending on the size of your present) straps of paper. Glue the first onto a wrapped present vertically and then glue the second to the top by the middle, turning the outer edges inwards and sticking them down onto the first piece. Use a black marker to draw the detailing, including a simple pocket!

Last design is a wine bottle gift wrap - take two pieces of scrap paper and stitch them together on a sewing machine creating a pocket. It should as wide and as big so that the wine bottle slips inside nicely. Then use a strap of old fabric and pull it through a simple paper piece, creating a tie! So simple!
