Fake (plastic) pearls are the perfect complement to this elegant gold wrapping paper. Get more for your buck by using giftwrap such as this clay-pot wrap, which can be a gift as well, . A shrink-wrapped gift basket is always a treasure during the holiday season. Figure A Figure B Craft Paper Wrap This particular wrap was done with kraft paper (guest Michael Basler says you can use a garbage bag as well) and spray paint. Here's how: Crumple the kraft paper (or garbage bag). Flatten out the paper and spray-paint it -- from an angle, not straight down. Be sure to use a color (red, green, etc.) that will contrast with the kraft paper or garbage bag. Decorate with raffia and a homemade tag or purchased card. Elegant Gold Wrap with Fake Pearls This gift is more about the trim than the actual wrapping paper, which is basic gold giftwrap. Simply wrap a string of plastic "pearls" around the package; use hot glue at the beginning and the end of the string to keep the pearls in place. Attach a plastic "pearl" button to the front for an elegant holiday package. Note: Other great embellishments include silk leaves and cord tassels. Clay Pot Wrap Another crafty idea is to fill two small clay pots with a gift such as garlic, place the pots together with raffia or decorative paper-twist ribbon and top with dried berries. Some other ideas include using a large clay pot that's decorated with gold embellishments and filled with gardening supplies, or a painted one whose saucer is being used as the lid -- filled with goodies such as honey, etc., and tied together with rope. Shrink-Wrapped Gift Basket Yes, you can shrink-wrap a gift yourself. Here's how: Fill a basket with any kind of goodies (chocolates, cookies, etc.) desired, and wrap the basket in a shrink-wrap bag, which can be found at any craft or party store. Melt the shrink-wrap with a blow-dryer ( figure A ). Note: Shrink wrap comes in colors as well as clear -- red, green or gold would be perfect for the holidays. Other Wrapping Ideas from Michael Basler: Wrap a bottle of wine with organza fabric, tied with ribbons and decorated with a string of fake "pearls" and a bow. Use denim fabric that's frayed at the edge for compact diskettes, DVDs or video tapes. Simply tie the ends with cowhide cord. For the inside of the box, consider surrounding the gift with different-color tissue-paper rosettes ( figure B ). RESOURCES: Wraps and Roll-Ups Model: 1558672095 Author: Dona Z.

Pass along one of your own family traditions, such as bringing an iron cricket on the hearth for good luck, a wreath to symbolize hospitality, or a guest book to record events and celebrations.
Give the Gift of Memories
Bring a photo album of your special times together. On the last page leave a space for a photo of their new home and write: "To be continued..." This can be an inexpensive gift that will be treasured now and in the future.
Transform the Ordinary
Flowering plants, green plants, plant baskets, or fresh flower arrangements can be a pretty ordinary gift -- or they can be
spectacular
. Choose, make, or order something really lush and gorgeous, decorated with bows, balloons, or ornaments, and placed in a beautiful container.
One Big Beautiful
... take your pick: vase, bowl, basket, cache pot, coffee table book, pitcher, or tray . Most people can use another one of these. Choose simple classic shapes and colors, or make it something special for a current holiday such as a blue bowl decorated with white stars for July 4th or a vase etched with little hearts for a housewarming close to Valentine's Day.
The Bad
Scraggly plants
Never give a plant or floral arrangement that looks like it has seen better days. This can be an additional problem in very hot or very cold weather too, since fresh greens can wilt quickly in temperature extremes. And never give a plant to someone who will have no interest in looking after it.
Pets
Never give something so personal as a pet, unless you know for a fact that this would be a welcome gift. Pets will demand a time and care commitment that many people are too busy to give.
Food
Be careful with food gifts. Candy will be all wrong for someone watching calories, while fresh fruit will be wasted if the recipients have an out of town trip coming up. Only when you know the person well can appropriate food items be chosen that will be welcomed.
Don't Ignore Their Taste
Perhaps you love antiques but your friends love contemporary. Don't force your preferences on them with an unwelcome gift of something only you think they "should" like. Chances are the gift will be a dud. Better to go with something "ordinary" than to strike out completely.
Recycled Gifts
Don't ever (repeat after me) -- don't ever give a gift that you've already received yourself, then rewrapped for someone else. It's tacky, and eventually someone will probably figure out what happened, then everyone will be embarassed.
