Making Wrapping Paper

Again, we keep things pretty simple over here.  A couple of years ago, I discovered a giant role of Christmas coloring pages at Michaels which is what we have been using for the kids' wrapping paper.  We have also made wrapping paper with white paper and stamps in the past.  This year, we may use old Christmas cards to spruce up plain red gift bags.  The important thing is that the kids are involved in all aspects of the gifts that they give.  They love it, and I think that it gives them a greater appreciation of the effort involved.  Also, it just seems to make sense because the gifts are from them.
