How to Wrap a Picture Frame with Wrapping Paper - Easy DIY Christmas Wall Art

What You'll Need to Wrap Picture Frames with Wrapping Paper

• Pretty Gift Wrap (I Love this Vintage Style Gift Wrap from Amazon)
• Hot Glue Gun (low temp for kids), Scotch Tape, & Scissors
• Christmas Twine, decorative ribbons, burlap, or other gift wrapping supplies
• A Soft Santa Ornament or other favorite ornaments

Here's a look at this years gift wrapped wall art.

Tips for Gift Wrapping A Picture Frame

Be sure to use a thick gift wrap that won't rip easily when wrapping it around frames.

You'll also want to make sure that the back of your wrapping paper doesn't have any inks or print that may ruin the art work or frame you're wrapping.

I like to hide the folded corners on the top and bottom of the frames, since you can usually always see the sides. Pinch your fingers along all corners to make crisp lines.

If masking tape won't stick to your picture frame, try painter's tape. It's a bit stickier but still easy to remove from most things.

Why don't we decorate with sweet Santa's all year long?

Use a Low Temp Glue Gun and just a dot of hot glue to attach your ribbons and ornaments. That hot glue should be easy to remove after Christmas.

That'll keep your Christmas decorations as nice as possible for use year after year.

How cute is that Santa? I found him at Target. The gift twine is from Hobby Lobby.

This is the first year that I've really brought together a cohesive look in our Dining Room Christmas decorations.

I'm really happy about how this Christmas gift wrapped wall art turned out.

The gift wrapped pictures work with the $20 DIY Barn Star Quilt I made. And, that Red Truck Farmhouse Christmas Village under it looks adorable.

Then the table centerpiece is just a simple large dough bowl filled with pine cones. I'm all heart-eyes over this Dining Room, guys.

Here's another look at our Dining Room decorated for Christmas. Now that you know How to Wrap A Picture Frame with Wrapping Paper, grab some pretty wrapping paper and get to it. 🙂

Update: Check out the Simple DIY Coffered Ceiling I recently installed in this room. It really turns that ceiling into a beautiful feature!

2 More Ways to Decorate with Wrapping Paper

Looking for more DIY Christmas Decor Ideas, here are 2 more quick and easy examples of how I use Christmas gift wrapping paper.

The first is another quick and easy DIY Christmas Wall Art project, just replacing the art in a Frame with gift wrap.

It looks best in frames that have a Matte. Can you tell I'm loving vintage style Christmas gift wrap, right now?

Replace a framed and matted piece of art with pretty Christmas wrapping paper for a super easy update.

The second is an update to one of those lighted glass vases you can find almost anywhere.

This vase has pretty ornaments and lights inside but you could see the battery compartment on the bottom and the top was kind of boring.

I wanted to make it match the room better and have a bit more style. So, I wrapped it 2/3rd's up in Christmas gift wrap, then hung 2 jingle bell ornaments on the top.

Easy and cute update, right?!

Wrap a glass vase in gift wrap to give it Christmas Style that matches your decor.

In my Living Room, I topped my DIY Farmhouse Console Table with some fun Christmas decor that seemed to go together. Wrapping that glass vase in red made it fit right in with that Santa.

Well, that's it for How to Wrap A Picture Frame with Wrapping Paper to make cute and easy homemade Christmas decorations.

I highly recommend looking at your Christmas gift wrap and tree decorations with new eyes to see if it can be used in a different way to make your own custom Christmas decorations.

This year, I used ornaments and Christmas crafting supplies that I mostly already had to make small Christmas table scenes and even a bigger Red Truck Christmas Village.

And, I didn't spend very much to do either. Yay!

Quick Tour of Christmas in our Living Room, This Year

And, here's a quick tour of my Christmas Tree and Christmas Mantle Decorations, this year.

I usually buy a few more ornaments each year to add to the tree. The more ornaments, the merrier right?? Well, at least that's what I think. I also think the more lights the better. 🙂

Can you tell I love lots of ornaments?! I save money by just adding a few new ornaments, every year. And, of course, making some of my own DIY Christmas ornaments too. 🙂

I have a tutorial for that great DIY Christmas Tree Box Stand under our tree. It really makes the tree look so polished and cheery.

I went with greenery on the mantle this year. Can you believe I found that lit greenery for $20 at ACE Hardware. Score!! I built that pretty red DIY Christmas Tree Stand. Adding a bottom to it makes it a great place to store my ornaments when Christmas is over.

You can find the story behind that Shiplap Fireplace in a previous post. Let's just say, I really like it, but it's not exactly what I expected.

These birds are a favorite of mine. Target has been selling 5 or 6 new versions of these every year for the last few years. So, I try to buy 1 or 2 each year. But, I think my collection is done. I'll run out of room for anything else. 😉
