A tulle Christmas!

Ooo, check out this great gift wrapping idea of using burlap in the Ruche Homemade Holiday Guide! I would be elated to receive such beautifully wrapped presents. Would you even bear to tear off the wrapping?

I'm inspired by this burlap gift wrapping idea and so I want to have a theme for wrapping my Christmas presents too. Instead of using burlap, I played with another and one of my favourite material - Tulle!

Here are some ideas how we can use tulle for gift wrapping:

Make a cute little tulle pom pom and use it as a gift topper. I decorated my pom pom with stick on crystals. The tricky part is to attach the pom pom to the box. I find it easier to sew the pom pom to a ribbon and go round the box with the ribbon. Here's a great tutorial to on how to make tulle pom pom.

You can also make a sweet tulle bow as the centre piece. I layered the tulle bow with organza and added a crystal embellishment. Place rectangular pieces of tulle and organza, scrunch and tie it in the centre. This will be great on a little girl's present and she can use this bow as a hair piece after Christmas!

Or simply wrap the present in tulle. For a fuller fluff at the top, use two pieces of circular tulle.

With a long piece of tulle, you can also go round the box with the tulle and tie it into a bow. Add a crystal embellishment to cover the knot.
