I adore the simple elegance of this hand-drawn gift wrap from Mini Eco. Using a silver paint pen to draw on brown packing paper looks great, and it would be a fun way to personalize gifts for any occasion!

I’ve done this for years. The copper pigment pens look even cooler.
I love paint pens, and I love hand-decorated wrapping paper!
One of my favorites was some white tissue paper that I hand-stamped a partially unwrapped banana pattern all over it. : )
Make that unpeeled, not unwrapped.
