Looking for interesting and rustic holiday gift wrapping ideas for the upcoming holidays? Try a few of these beauties that are super simple to use and find!
You know what I love the most about my rustic lifestyle? It’s easy.I love to decorate, I love a “pretty” home, and basically anything and every that has to do with nature. So, why not incorporate this mentality into your holiday gift wrapping?
How do you do that? Very simply, my friend!
Rustic Holiday Gift Wrapping Ideas
First, get out that kraft paper.
Personally, I am a HUGE fan of the kraft paper. Why? It can be manipulated a thousand different ways. You can leave it plain, paint it, stamp it, cover anything over it, use pieces of it, and the list goes on. Plus, it’s a pretty good bargain for your buck!
Then round up some “nature”.
This could be anything from feathers, twigs, leaves, pinecones, shells or even interesting items that you have found in the woods, a park or on a hike.

Next, purchase or repurpose random bits of twine, ribbon and bows in colors that are pleasing to your eyes.
You might want to do bright colors, traditional or even pump up the eye candy value and use your gift receivers favorite colors.
Last, but not least, create cute little tags!
I left all of my tags blank for this post since I have a few future gift receivers who read this blog (you know who you are!), and heaven knows they would shake, rattle or even open the package(s) up if I announced which one was theirs.
Anyways, I created these little cuties from a punch label maker, but you could also just purchase blank tags at your local craft store.
Don’t forget, you can mix and match colors, items in nature, paint, stamps or whatever makes you happy. Have fun with this project! Plus, when you’re all done, it’ll look amazing underneath your tree :)
