When we were in Mid Valley recently, I stumbled upon their Christmas newsletter. Oh how I adore them. The newsletter has a vintage feel to it. They are free for shoppers to take and I found them at the information booth. I took 2 pieces home (should have taken more …hehehehhee).
Nice eh?
The inside of the newsletter. I decided to use one piece for gift-wrapping. I am keeping the other piece. So precious!
All wrapped.
As gift topper, I used a piece of crepe paper from China to create a paper flower. I prefer its texture and thickness. I also used the YRSNÖ ribbon from Ikea to decorate the gift box.
Here is the gift wrapped with Mid Valley newsletter…all ready for the Christmas party 🙂
A Mewwy Kwismas To All
Wow! The recycled wrapper looks really nice, so christmassy with a touch of vintage feel.. Love it!
I wonder who is the lucky person to get this gift from you. Marry Christmas to you and your family. Have a wonderful weekend.
I LOVE the wrapper !! the kinda designs i like. Unfortunately .. all my pressies are wrapped in ‘balloon’ design coz i bought bulk at Mydin.
Eh.. Ikea used to have newspapers for wrapping fragile items.. last time.. they had this ‘yellow stained’ newspaper.. very good for wrapping too.
If i go MV.. I’ll look out for newsletter.
Another thing i love to keep – christmas catalogs from Cold Storage. Pretty !
WOW!!! Very nice!!! I love the MV newsletter, very vintage!
Love your wrapping using the newsletter, beautiful and creative!!
Very nice feel…
You are one creative lady Barb, very nice! Is it very tedious and difficult to make the red flower?
thanks 🙂 it’s very easy to make the paper flower. just accordion fold a few pieces of the crepe paper, tie the center with a string and then unfold the 2 sides of the paper 🙂
Who receive ur pressie must be very happy. love the way u made the paper flower.
Such a creative way to use the newsletter. Normally I would put them away with old newspaper. Now I’ve know I can recycle it this way.
Btw, your big red flower is also suitable as CNY decoration (I know Christmas is not over yet :P). Wish you and your family a very merry Christmas!
Can always go and take again hehe. I did not see this newsletter when I was there 🙁 I heard that it comes with stickers too.
Merry Christmas to yu and the family. Ya very good idea. Kids would love that too
So adorable, creative and green! Wish you a merry happy Christmas!
Barb, you are very creative … love the vintage feel of the newsletter.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
great idea! Merry Christmas!
I love this vintage newsletter.
You should have sapu 10 pieces or something! But boy, hats off to you Barbs, you are really creative!
Wow–how creative!
