Easy Gift Wrap!

Today was my sister's birthday.  A BIG one!  I bought her a birthday cake scented candle, but when I went to wrap it up this morning, I realized I was out of gift bags! We were meeting for breakfast, and it was raining, so no time to go up by the Mall or to Walmart for a gift bag. : (

Looking around the craft room, I saw several yards of various colored tulle, so I grabbed the pink tulle, plus some black curly ribbon and got to work.  I cut a square of tulle that was big enough to double up and gather around my jar candle.  Then I cut about 8 lengths of ribbon, tied each around the top & curled them.  I think it looks adorable!! I always have tulle on hand - blue, pink, white and sometimes other colors;  now I'm going to start using it with curly ribbon for a different take on gift wrap!  What do you think?

I'm linking up with lots of blog hops this week, including Fridays Unfolded at
