9 Ways to Turn Garbage Into Gorgeous Gift Wrap

Who wouldn't want to receive one of these beautiful gifts? You won't believe what some of these items were before we repurposed them into gift wrap.

Those 6-pack holders you're always dumping in the recycling bin? Save them! You only need one material to repurpose them into a useful organizer for a thoughtful gift.

A portable art kit makes the perfect gift for a budding artist. Go from 6-pack holder to sleek art supply carrier by simply painting the cardboard with two coats of black craft paint. You could also spray paint it. Top off the gift with an inspirational tag. So skip the gift basket or bag that the recipient will probably throw away and give a gift that is not only thoughtful but functional too.

On your next closet cleanout, save old shirts that aren't in a condition to donate maybe because they have a hole or stain, especially if it's not on the sleeves. A shirt sleeve could be your solution for how to wrap oddly-shaped gifts.
