I will have to try the garland. I love wrapping presents in craft paper with a bright ribbon, but the garland is so creative.Thanks Laura for this farewell diy!

The garland is so cute!

This is very nice, I am off to check her blog and instructions. We all need to recycle more.

wow, very nice and incredible post.

Laura, I’ve enjoyed your week of crafts and hope design*sponge invites you back sooner than later. Cheers!

Wow – these are totally amazing. I’m never buying greeting cards again. Thanks for sharing this super cute idea :)

I love the garland – thank you x

Simple, clean, classic. <3

So adorable and resourceful!

This idea is wonderful, thank you for having shared with us all!

those presents look amazing… such a good idea! too nice to open though?!

i LOVE all these ways to use leftover paper scraps! so creative — and cute!

love the garlands! i never would have thought of that…

THANK YOU! I need 2 cards this weekend and won’t get a chance to go buy any, so I’m going to try out this idea!

These are lovely. I remember when I did a recycling project on my blog (re-using old containers, decorating and using as pen pots) they were so popular too. I like your presents and cupcake duo cards. especially.

these are great. i have so much scrap paper, i cant’ ever seem to throw away the scraps, so this perfect!

I love those cards! This is definitely an idea I’ll be using; thanks for sharing it!

Now I know what to do with all the extra scraps of paper lying around the office. Thank you for sharing!

I am staying in tonight to make COOL stuff….This is so great! THANKS for some great projects.

I love most things that have to do with paper, but that garland is above and beyond! What a fun touch for a gift!

Thank you! My mom’s birthday is today and I just sat here this morning and made her an adorable card with the birthday cake design. So cool!

So cute! I love the use of garland on the gift wrapping. It would be adorable on a book cover, as well.

What a great way to use up paper scraps! I bet this would work well with leftover fabric too.

These are just fantastic!

Way to be green! I love the vintage look that these offer!

They are sooo clever! I love them!

i like the garland.I have made it before using other materials than those shown. my fave was a deco punch bear from brown velveteen ribbon machine sewn together into garland with red & green threads by the bear hand or foot or ear (whichever way it was picked up lol)
THANKS !

love the garlands. can’t wait to try this.
