Is everyone ready for the holidays?
I am one busy elf preparing for all the upcoming hoopla, not to mention already indulging in several warm up celebrations!
Most of my shopping is done, but I still have bunches and bunches of wrapping to do…I need to hire a couple of additional elves to help out!
And speaking of wrapping, I recently needed a quick wrap job for a Yankee Swap – it was a small gift but I didn’t have any wrapping paper available at my office, so I decided to create my own.
I thought it came out pretty cute, and figured someone else might think so too!
It’s a festive Holiday Word Search! 
If you click on the image to save it, it should open up as an 8×10 image, which will be big enough for a ‘smallish’ gift.
I made a second version that included some of the holiday words circled, so that the recipient was clued into the fact that they could finish the Word Search if they wanted
And here’s the list of words that are hidden in the puzzle.
You could tuck it inside the box, etc.
It’s like getting a bonus present! Okay…maybe not, but it’s still kinda fun…
And for those .pdf loving folks: Holiday Word Search Wrapping Paper
And here is a horrible picture of said present that I took with my phone…I tried to pretty it up with some flashy editing…yeah, not very successful with that!
Enjoy the Party!
Wanna know where I party? Check it out!
Love this idea. I will be wrapping one of my hubby’s gifts with this.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks for the word search. Linda
I love love love this idea! How fun! It would be cute to add the words to find in the gift tag. I’ve already finished all my Christmas wrapping, but I need to find a new gift to wrap now so I can do this!
Kristi – I LOVE the idea of the matching gift tag! I only have 2 presents wrapped (and 4 kids!), but if I get some done I just might have to go ahead and create the tag! Wish me luck!
What a really cute idea. I love find a word puzzles. I remember borrowing my grandmothers book a a kid and doing them. I found your blog thru a link u from 4youwithlove blog, where you and I were featured. I thought she had a really fantastic idea, so I am making it a point to visit those blogs she featured and pay it forward by following them. Merry Christmas
This is a clever idea. I found you on 4youwith love where I was featured also. I am paying it forward and following all the blogs also. Happy Holidays and happy blogging.
