I have wanted to try this tutorial since I first saw it last year.
Like so many other things, I have been thinking about it, but haven't actually tried it until now! I found an old magazine that was going to be thrown out, and I started...
That's what I did...I made a mistake by cutting the strips of paper too wide, but I made it work ;)
Now I just need to find some fancier paper - I am thinking the Christmas adds will be nice - and then I have to make some more, so we can have beautifully wrapped presents without having to spend money on the wrapping. Cool, huh?!

Thanks for the reminder - I have been meaning to try this too. You are so right - it will add to the christmas packaging!
Your bow turned out great!
I don't think I did that last strip either.
How beautiful! What a remarkable transformation, from a magazine to a bow.
I really like that, thank for bringing it to our attention. Half the bows in purchased bags always seem to be crushed. And they are so plain!
I have a lot of nice magazines. Just what I needed - another Christmas project. LOL!!

I'm impressed! I don't know if I have the patience to make those for all of my xmas pressies though...!
Happy Blogtoberfest!
