Have you guys seen all of the fun celery art that has been going on around Pinterest? I'd seen a few, and I thought some were cute. But when I saw Geninne's DIY celery-stamped wrapping paper over at Geninne's Art Blog, I was smitten. I knew I had to try it out.
How gorgeous is this wrapping? The white rosettes mized with the recycled paper... I think it's extremely lovely. I decided to make my own for a little package I wanted to send off to my Mother for her birthday.
Isn't it pretty? I got a celery stalk that was nice and open at the bottom. I like the big, flowery look. I only wish I had stamped each flower a little closer together. They look lovely on the package, but I think it would have been beautiful with a little bit more coverage.
Before I sent it off, I wrapped it up with some simple twine for a subtle look. I kind-of want to celery-stamp my entire roll of kraft paper now. I also have a nice tupperware full of celery sticks in my fridge for snacking. It's a pretty sweet craft when you can get lovely packaging and some food out of it at the same time.
Be sure to head on over to Geninne's Art Blog to check out her DIY wrapping paper. Happy crafting!
