I'm a super plain Jane gift wrapper. Wrap it and be done. But I seen something on Pinterest that I wanted to try out.
Sent the hubs on a Hobby Lobby run, which he absolutely loves, NOT!
Got me some crepe streamer, glitter, tacky glue, and a brad of choice.
I was limited to the brad of choice since there are tons at Hobby Lobby and my husband had no clue what to grab, so I had to use what I had at home.
I folded the crepe paper over and over and over, I actually never counted how many times. I then slit each end so that all the peices would be seperate. I then rounded the top ends and then curved it like the top of a heart (kinda hard to explain). But you can see from the pics.
I then basically rolled the tops of the crepe into glue then in glitter, easy peasy!
I cut out a circle then "scrunched" the unglued part and glued them onto that circle, 4 on the first layer, then 4 on the next. Don't overlap directly on each other, you want some dimension.
Then I just pushed the brad through the middle and attached it to the gift. The purple brad was the best thing I could find at the moment. :)
