{Wrap it LOVELY # I}

Choosing your wedding favors can be stressful, challenging but ultimately fulfilling . It requires a lot of heart and hardwork. I'd like to share a pretty packaging idea to make your gift-giving extra special. To beautifully wrap your tokens does not have to be expensive. Simple and easy-to-find materials can work wonders. Wrapping even the simplest gift with love becomes priceless. Are you ready? Let's start and wrap them lovely! =)


You will need the following:
- Craft box
- Doily
- Jute twine
- Trinket
(I used a bicycle - it's such a cutie for rustic travel-themed weddings)


Step 1: Place the doily on the center of the craft box.


Step 2: Bring two ends of the jute twine on the middle.


        Cross over.




        With one end of the twine on top of the craft box, pull the other end under and over the box.


        Tie into a knot.




Step 3: Secure the trinket in place.


Step 4: Tie into a bow.


There you have it, a rustic packaging for your DIY wedding! =)
