Wrap holiday presents on a budget
Do you want to give pretty packages but don’t have a lot of money to spend on paper and other supplies? Try these ideas!
- Head to the backyard and pick up some pinecones. Attach them to packages for a wintry feel. Or, if you’re giving to a person who loves the beach, use shells from your last vacation to spruce up their present.
- Don’t spend money on gift boxes. Ask for them at stores, or cover an old shoe or cereal box with pretty paper and put the present in that.
- Wrap DVDs in the movie listings from the newspaper.

Wrap it up!
Buying gifts is my favorite part of the season, but once that’s done I’m faced with my least favorite—wrapping them up! I always seem to wait until the last minute to get it all done and never have the right material. This year I will not slack! I’ve just ordered some great gift wrap, ribbons, and bags to put all my gifts in. Hopefully the fun patterns will help motivate me to get things done before Christmas morning. I’m sure all my recipients will be pleased with the wrapping jobs I do this year!

What are your holiday budget tricks?
What are the tricks up your sleeves to keep the holidays special without spending a fortune? RealSimple.com has listed a few good ideas (but we think we can add dozens more — so share your secrets in the comments of this blog).
Real Simple suggests:
- Giving to the group with one gift everyone can share rather than individual gifts for everyone (like an ice cream maker or Blu-ray player).
- Swapping thoughtful IOUs (and keeping the promises!)
- Giving a couple smaller gifts in the stocking rather than one large more expensive gift.
- See all their holiday tips in their Hectic Holiday Handbook
Some other budget-minded ideas we lover are:

Get stylish holiday cards
I hate to admit it, but it’s time to order my holiday cards. While this can be at times a cumbersome task, this year I am actually excited about sending cards thanks to the wonderful site minted.com. They have such fun and different designs. Plus, the photos print on card stock, not on photo paper, which in my opinion makes them a little snazzier.
Besides holiday cards, you can also pick up great address labels, holiday invitations, minibook cards to give as small gifts, and cards that let everyone know what went on with your family in 2009 (and they’re 10% off through Nov. 23).
What I also love about this site is you can submit your designs to be sold on minted.com. Web users vote on your designs, and the grand-prize winner will get $500 and 5% of net sales of the products sold. Right now the site is taking designs for Valentines cards, so if you are computer and design savvy, I suggest you enter!
