With the holiday season quickly approaching, I have a great way to decorate all those homemade holiday or store-bought gifts! Whip up a batch of my homemade glue, find a stack of magazines you’re ready to toss and get ready to make your own gift bows!
This is an easy project to do and can be a great way to spend an afternoon with the kiddos.

Making a bow is really very easy to do and adds a great homemade touch to your holiday gifts. Not to mention it’s a frugal, eco-friendly way to wrap your gifts. Do you make your own bows?
How to Make a Bow from a Magazine Page is part of my month-long series on Homemade Holidays.

This is so awesome. I think of the sports magazines I can make bows with for the guys in the family, toy pages from magazines for the kiddos, the list goes on. Such a wonderful idea, money saver, and personal touch to packages. Thanks a bunch.
