Five Ingenious Ways to Re-use Gift Wrapping Paper

By DIY Maven

Sadly most wrapping paper hits the garbage soon after it's torn from its package. To continue to enjoy its beauty, you might want to extend its life by doing these five cool things with it.

1. Make a foil fan.

2. Use it to make scrapbook pages or next year's holiday cards. (Here are some ideas from Scrapbooks Etc that are sure to inspire.)

3: Make book covers.

4: Use it to weave a handbag.

5: Use it for papier-mâché.

Bonus tip:

Use it to fold a cd case for your holiday pics.

For additional information, including how-tos, go to lifehackery.
