Today’s Project
On the eighth day of our 12 Days of Christmas in July Giveaway, my true love gave to me…this Oly*Fun Gift Wrapping Tutorial from Fairfield!
SUPPLIES:
- Oly*Fun in your choice of coordinating colors. This tutorial used Grab and Go Packs in Cherry Pop, Clover, and Snow White
- LOW TEMP Glue Gun, or multi-temp glue gun set to LOW and glue sticks
- Scissors,
- An iron set on the lowest setting possible
- Gifts to Wrap
INSTRUCTIONS:
You may want to iron your Oly*Fun a bit to remove wrinkles. You just want to be really careful and iron on your iron’s lowest setting. Even then, test your iron on a small bit of Oly*Fun, just to be sure your iron won’t melt it.
Wrap your gift the way you normally would. Instead of tape, use your LOW temperature glue gun.
Have fun decorating with cut out shapes and embellishments.
