Gift Wrap Idea ~ Brown Paper Stockings

Got this idea from this month's "Country Living" magazine. 
   Get out your sewing machine and wrap those small gifts!

 I used the basic shape from the pattern I posted recently. 

The paper is postal wrapping paper.

Found this roll on a yard sale adventure.

 Zig Zagged around the edge and over the eye lash yarn.

Got the yarn marked way down at Hobby Lobby last Sept. 

If it's red and sparkly, I grab it thinking "Christmas!"

The yarn was doubled, leaving the loop for for an ornament hook.

I can imagine these in a much smaller size for wrapping things like jewelry or money.

The article in the magazine showed a star shape.  

A candy cane or simple triangle tree would work as well.
