Tissue Paper and Freezer Paper Gift Wrap
         
  If tissue paper alone is to thin for your gift wrap, try applying it to freezer paper. It's as simple as lying the finished tissue paper on the glossy side of freezer paper and quickly ironing to meld them together. See Tissue Paper Gift Wrap for decorating the tissue paper, then follow the instructions below to iron them together.  
   
  Supplies:      
 
 
  • tissue paper, white or colored
  • ink pads
  • stamps or wheels
  • freezer paper
  • iron
 
  Step 1:      
  Stamp your tissue paper as desired. Warm your iron to a dry heat (no steam).  
   
  Step 2:      
  Cut a piece of freezer wrap the desired size. Lay it on your ironing board, glossy side up (this is the plastic coated side).  
   
  Step 3:      
 
Optional: Bunch up the tissue paper. Flatten it back out, leaving some wrinkles in place. This adds a bit of texture to the finished paper.  
 
   
  Step 4:      
  Lay the tissue paper on top of the freezer paper. (this may be done in either order, freezer paper on bottom/ tissue paper on top or tissue paper on bottom/ freezer paper on top).  
   
  Step 5:      
 
Press the two layers together. Hold the iron in one place for 5 - 10 seconds, then move on to the next area. Continue until both layers are completely melded together.  
 
   
  Variation:      
  You may sandwhich several things between the two layers for different effects. Try sprinkling some of the following on the paper before adhering the two layers together:
