Looking for some inexpensive art? Try framing a piece of beautiful wrapping paper. Many stores, like Paper Source, now sell single sheets of high-end wrapping paper, or you can simply cut a piece from your favorite roll.

GIFTBASKETS writes: You can also use wrapping and packing for your gifts.Giftbasket wrapped in different style in various designed baskets gives the gift an excellent look. A simple and delight look which fills everyone hearts with happiness and joys. Happiness like, when we see the RAINBOW IN THE SKY, when a little baby put up his first step. Similarly Giftbasket spreads happiness all around you and your dear & near one.

LolasMama writes: That's a really good idea! Here is another similar idea: You can buy pretty single sheets of paper and fold them over a canvas, layering so that you see different amount of each paper, and then use a staple gun to adhere to the back of the canvas. I have these hanging all over my house! It also looks cool to cover the seams of the paper with ribbons in different widths, colors, and textures. Posted: 2:39 pm on August 11th
