Gift wrap Dashboards

It's no secret I'm a massive fan of all things Paperchase, so it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that I bought my Christmas paper from there this year. It's beautiful and I can't wait to give the carefully wrapped presents under the tree to my family... There might even be an effort to convert a family member or two to the ways of planner addiction.

I had one problem though, there were offcuts of beautiful paper and no more gifts to wrap. I'm too much of a hoarder to throw them away, so I did what comes naturally to a planner girl; I laminated and made dashboards from them.


I just couldn't resist, I mean look at them! 


As foiled paper, added with the lamination, these were quite tricky to photograph well and the picture really doesn't do them justice. It's so beautiful though, I love how there's a range of deer heads!


I have a bit of a thing about penguins, my brother even adopted one for me last Christmas. I couldn't resist these sweet little guys and their cute colourful scarves.


Finally my favourite, the sprouts! I've got Christmas baubles and sticky tape to match, I love this one so much! 

One thing is for certain, in going to be whipping out the planner every chance I get to show these off this Christmas.

  1. I've decked out my planner with Christmas wrappers too. Makes a nice reminder, as each piece is either from or to me. Since the designs are not too Christmasy, they can stay through the year.

    1. That's a lovely idea. I was a little worried they might not survive the laminator, but now that I know they will I'll certainly be doing it again.
