Wrapping gifts with it is a perfect idea to use some of it up.

Love it and have been kind of using the same scheme for as long as I can remember. You can see my signature wrapping paper on a post I did ON wrapping here if you have time.<br /><br />http://goodlifeofdesign.blogspot.com/2010/12/how-do-you-wrap-it-up.html<br /><br />Love all of the examples you gave us, thanks for sharing,KathysueKathysuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11272239664279235716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4711916785635061879.post-51854331188612250542010-12-16T11:37:37.759-05:002010-12-16T11:37:37.759-05:00I love wrapping packages in brown paper.
