Just in time for the holidays, the blogger of Make it Orange (See Recycled Magazine Coasters) brings us this wonderful how-to on making gift bows from magazines, sure to impress you and your gift recipient ...

 
 

How About Orange has put together an impressively detailed how-to on this gift wrap bow for "gift wrapping emergencies". I like it so much I'd be tempted put a bunch of these together to use on a regular basis!

Below are some of the steps in photos. Visit How About Orange for the full set of instructions.
