Quick Hanukkah Wraps

Give your holiday gifts a special shine with these easy adornments.

What You Need:

Good things come in nice packages.

Blue wrapping paper
White wrapping paper
White or sheer white wire-edge ribbon, at least 1-inch wide
Star-of-David confetti (available at paper- and party-goods stores)
Hot-glue gun and glue sticks
Clear-drying glue
Blue plastic star
Clear cellophane bag
Silver glitter
Silver cording

Instructions:

1. Blue package, with decorative ribbon: Wrap package in blue paper. Wrap package with white wire-edge ribbon and tie into a fluffy bow: form first 2 loops as if you were tying a shoe, then make more loops before tying them all together. Attach Star-of-David confetti to the bow with dots of hot glue.

2. White package, with Star of David: To make the standing star, brush clear-drying glue on a blue plastic star and sprinkle it with silver glitter. Let glue dry. Glue the star to a bow made from white wire-edge ribbon. Wrap package in white paper. Crisscross silver cording around package. Hot-glue bow to top of package.

3. Clear cellophane bag: Drop a handful of the confetti stars into a clear cellophane bag with a pretty, seasonal gift -- such as menorah candles -- and tie the bag closed with silver cording.
