Roberta here with a fantastic (and easy) craft – homemade wrapping paper, perfect for making a friend’s gift extra-special.

Here’s what you need:
Two large pieces of newsprint or white scrapbooking paper, acrylic paint in different colors, paintbrush, water (for rinsing the paintbrush)

What you do:

1. Dab dots of paint all over the paper. Use lots of different colors!
2. Press the second sheet of paper over top of the dots and smooth it down with your hands.
3. Pull the pieces of paper apart –you’ll have splats of paint on both of them. Let the paint try.
4. When the paint is dry, wrap the gift with the paper.
