I’ve gathered up all of my supplies and I’m ready to wrap up the Christmas gifts! Ummm… I guess I’d better get online and start ordering some things quick : )
It is gonna be great having my supplies all in one place for a change. Plus, this is cute and looks like a Christmas tree. Bonus! Wrapping décor!
It started out with an idea to participate in Debbiedoos Holiday Knock off party. I just knew I had something lying around from one of my thrifting trips that I could incorporate. And I found just the thing tucked away in my garage- umm staging area…
A crusty rusty old ladder with plenty of patina. Just the way I like it!
I wiped the ladder down and loaded it with rolls of wrapping paper; stacks of tissue paper; gift boxes; rolls of ribbon; gift bags; scissors, tape; and ink pens. What else could I possibly need? Besides the aforementioned gifts and a couple of helpful elves?
Here’s a close-up of my gift wrap station, just so you won’t miss a thing. I kind of love it!
I was inspired by this photo in Southern Lady’s November/December 2012 issue.

My Version
I didn’t buy anything for this challenge. I already had all of the Christmas wrapping supplies and the wonderful thrifted ladder. I used a drop cloth (I always have one on hand) for my tree skirt. And I had the two mini trees on the sides from last year. The green one in the peanut sack was a gift from my mother in law, and I made the burlap and sweater ruffled tree in this post. So, I will use up or reuse everything here. Fun and frugal.
Merry Christmas all.
May your packages be beautifully wrapped!
