    I'm tired of paying $4 to $5 for a roll of wrapping paper that barely covers my gifts. Today I needed to wrap presents for both of my grandchildren, one boy and one girl. So I couldn't use the same wrap. Rather than spend money on the store boughten wrapping paper, I decided to make pillowcases out of my stash and wrap the presents in the pillow case. It worked beautifully. I think the kids will be delighted to receive an extra gift in the pillow case. I think I will do this for everyone at Christmas.

    What a great idea. I have several cases made up for my Grandkids for Christmas. I am going to "borrow" your idea and put their gifts in the case.
    Thanks for sharing!!! :thumbup:
