My Christmas Gift Wrapping 2012 (Red and Gold)

I hope everyone had a beautiful Christmas with their loved ones.  I am so blessed to have such an amazing family to share such a special time of year with.

I thought I would share today my gift wrapping from this year.  I obviously chose red and gold to match my 2012 Christmas theme, which I shared earlier this week here.  I always try to keep the wrapping simple, as I always have lots of presents to wrap!  And like last year (you can see that wrapping here), I kept the embellishments flat - so much easier for stacking under the tree and it also means it doesn't get squashed during transporting the gifts...

I found this red and gold wrapping paper earlier in the year - I shared that story here...

I decided to stick with a contrasting coloured belly band like last year, as I love the look it gives.  I did some belly bands vertical, some horizontal and some diagonal.  I thought I would shake it up a bit, rather than have everything EXACTLY the same ;)

And finally, I found these gorgeous gold bauble gift tags at Big W, in a pack of 8 for $2.  I thought they were very sweet!

You can see that this was quite a simple little package to put together, and I think they looked lovely!
