Today I’m going to show you how to do add one of the easiest and most affordable decor elements to your Christmas home collection - wrapped photo frames! This is an inexpensive and easy way to get more coverage around the house without having to buy extra decor - and you can reuse the ribbon every year!

Supplies you need:

• Wrapping paper or kraft paper (you can get these in large rolls for bigger picture frames at places like Office Max or Staples. You can get the white kraft paper I used HERE.

• Scotch tape

• Scissors

• 2-4” wide ribbon of your choice. The ribbon I used can be found HERE.

• Glue dots (find some HERE)

To start, my photo frames in this gallery are attached to the wall using Command Velcro (if you don’t know about this stuff, it’s AMAZING. Keeps me from having 500 holes in my wall! I use it everywhere!) So I knew I had to work around that on the back side. It had to remain clear so that I could put it back on the wall.

I also didn’t want to waste paper on the back side of the frame, so I laid out the paper on the floor and only left about a 2inch margin all the way around - just enough to fold the sides like a regular gift and scotch tape on the back. Once I did that, I razor bladed the area around the Command Velcro on the back so that it was free to attach to the wall.

For the ribbon, I did the same thing as the paper - only using enough to just come around the back of the frame. On the sides where the Command Velcro was, I cut it just at the edge and used the glue dots to hold on each side.

Next, I made my no-glue bow by folding two loops with the ribbon, then I cut a three inch strip of ribbon, folded in the edges on both sides and wrapped it around the back and secured with another glue dot. Piece of cake! One that was done I used one more glue dot to attach it to the front of the gift and done!

Click those bad boys back into the velcro and you are done. When the holidays are over, be sure and keep the ribbon - it’s already pre-cut and will be even easier to recreate next year! You can do this on any gallery wall in your house…I think it would look even more fun if the frames are all different sizes! I love that you can also change out the wrapping paper and the ribbon every year if you wanted to match whatever theme you choose with your Christmas decor.
