Ahhh, paper. It’s our first love in the world of crafting. Even as we’re lured in this direction and that by lovely fabric and photoshop, we both compulsively still buy beautiful paper at every chance. Which means that our paper stashes are abounding with goodness that needs to be put to good use! We’ve scoured the internet finding ways to transform a pile of patterned paper into holiday decorations and gifts and packaging… Enjoy!

I love this patterned paper bunting by geninne’s art blog… it could double as garland for your Christmas tree as well!

Make a set of wine charms using patterned paper with this tutorial by deep fried kudzu.

This advent calendar by t matthews fine art is fantastic! You just print the pyramid template onto the back of your patterned paper and make some tags…
