Have you ever seen the wrapping paper they always seem to use in films set before 1950 or so?  Doesn’t it look suspiciously like the brown paper bags you can still get in grocery stores? (You do have to ask for it now, I think.)

I love presents wrapped in the stuff because it is understated and makes the present the focus.

All you have to do is cut the bottom out of the sack, then cut along the edge or seam up the side of the bag.  Now wrap.

If you want to, you can use some twine or hemp as ribbon and make it look very old fashioned!
