I could have taken the easy way out and used a gift bag, but where's the fun in that? Instead, I thought I'd try something different and create a pouch for the chopping board.
I chose a duck egg blue theme as the red cocotte dish and cheese knife spoke to my inner francophile.
I cut a piece of paper about twice the width of the chopping board, and ironed it (medium heat, dry setting). I then folded the sides and the base twice and stuck them down.
I created the pouch by folding the sides and the base over the chopping board and sticking the base to the sides.
To finish the pouch, I cut a piece of paper equal to the width of the board and stuck it down.
I wrapped the cheese knife the same way and popped it into the pouch. I closed the top of the pouch by folding it over twice and sticking it down. I then created a faux string tie using some brown buttons, which I stuck on with craft glue, and twine.
I wrapped the cocotte dish in the same paper and tied both presents together with a blue and brown reversible ribbon.
Tres jolie!
