Plain red wrapping paper for stocking stuffers

[sandiegosusie]

Looking for plain red wrapping paper...anyone know where I can find it? I'm attempting to do red wrapped stocking gifts with a black bow! Of course, came up with this one last minute and now can't find the supplies...as usual!!!

Thanks a bunch...I will try that one tomorrow! Target-no, Joann's-no, Hallmark-no, Michael's-no, Big Lots-no...

Ours too... good luck!!!

Ours had solid colors at $2.99 for 100 sq ft. Pretty good buy for that type of store, I thought.

How about red tissue paper as a backup plan.

I bought mine at the dollar store a few weeks ago.

BJ's if you have one. Not in with the Christmas stuff but with the greeting cards. Always 1/2 off the suggested price too.

I don't know where you are located, but here is where I found my solid color wrapping paper this year:
Dollar Tree
Party City
Factory Card Outlet

I did solid cream (adult presents) and solid red (kid presents) with green velvet ribbon & bows.

I got a roll of foil door wrap at hobby lobby. You could try that.

I got solid colors (red, lime, pink) at IKEA.
They also had plain red, green, bule, gold at Dollar Tree- I noticed yesterday.

First place that I thought of was the Dollar Tree. I'm sure I saw it there last week. Great idea. Our stocking stuffers never all quite fit.

Happy Holidays!

I bought some at Michaels.

Hallmark sometimes has solid colors. Maybe you could look with their regular paper, not the Christmas paper.

Hope you find it!

You could also look for red/white striped paper - the gifts that Santa had in his sleigh for the Polar Express were wrapped that way - so all of my gifts this year from Santa are in red/white paper. My 6 year old will catch on to that similarity very quickly - she thinks its cool that we have a sleigh bell on our tree - and now she knows why its there!!!

Oh - and don't forget to look at the paper that is two-sided.... most of the times the other side is either striped or solid red.

I know its too late, but Current Magazine also sells very cute paper that is imprinted with "From Santa".... you could get that for next year.

I have never thought of color-coding! Every year I go nuts trying to figure out what is what...(after I have wrapped everything a month earlier!!) Think I'll color- code everyone's gift this year! I'd better write it down tho cuz I'd forget who is what color!!!!

Thanks for the idea, can I claim it as mine? Naaaa, my DH would never believe it!

Hey, tag fairy, Thanks for the tag!!!

Color-coding? But, then, what does Santa do with all the leftover pieces of his special wrapping paper?
