WRAPPING GUIDE PART 1: PREPPY

I love wrapping presents almost more than the actual presents. I've put together a series of wrapping guides where I share my favorite sources. For the most part I try to use cheap wrapping paper and ribbon and then fill it in with the occasional special materials. (I wish I could wrap every box in $5/yard ribbon but it gets cost prohibitive.) This is all stuff I have in my wrapping supplies I've linked to it where available. The Paper Mart Ribbon is my favorite just because it is really affordable.
