Wrap artist WHEN IT COMES TO THE ART of gifting, first impressions count. Even if your gift is inexpensive or small, taking time to present it nicely shows the recipient you’ve made an effort. After all, it is the thought that counts. Start by picking a theme or colour palette (no more than three colours) or use a mix of textures and patterns in similar tones. White is a simple and easy base to build on; adorn with ribbons, rope or mini pegs to hold on gift tags. You can even branch out and add a sprig of rosemary or clippings from your garden. Give the gift of DIY this Christmas – you’ll save money and have fun doing it.

gift wrapping

how to: wrap a difficult present Step 1

Don’t let an unusual shape stop you from buying that perfect gift! Here’s our guide to getting it wrapped right. You will need: Plain or cute paper bags, tissue paper and ribbon or stickers to seal. Step 4

Step 1: Gather all your items and make sure you have the right size bags for your gifts.

Step 2

Step 2: Take a sheet of tissue paper, fold in half and place your gift in the centre. Fold tissue paper loosely around the gift (you don’t need to be too careful). Step 3: Pop gift into the bag and fold bag over once at the top.

Step 5 1.

Step 4:

Seal with a sticker, or tie up using a length of ribbon, making a bow at the top.

Step 3

2. 3.

Step 5: Add a gift tag – you can tie on or attach with a mini peg. Alternatives: Paper bags with handles or noodle boxes also make great boxes for your gifts.

make your own: festive bunting Get crafty and make your own bespoke bunting with these simple steps. You will need: Double sided wrapping paper, ribbon, raffia, mini pegs, scissors and a hole punch. Step 1: Measure out triangles onto double sided paper, making them slightly longer than they are wide. It’s best to create a template with a piece of cardboard for you to trace around so that your triangles are all the same size. Cut out using scissors, or for an even edge use a craft knife and ruler.

TOOLS OF THE TRADE

Step 2: Cut some ribbon to the length you want your bunting to be, cutting the ribbon on an angle for a neat edge. Step 3: Starting about 30cm in from the end of the ribbon, use mini pegs to attach the triangles to the ribbon. Space triangles evenly, alternating sides of the wrapping paper and continue along the entire length of ribbon. Step 4:

Hang your bunting, step back and admire!

Alternatives: You can use raffia in place of the ribbon. Using a hole punch to create holes in the top corners of each triangle and thread raffia through.

TANGY DRESSING 60ml (¼ cup) light olive oil 1 large red chilli, finely sliced 4 garlic cloves, finely sliced 60ml (¼ cup) white wine vinegar 2 tablespoons sugar ½ teaspoon sea salt

recipe from King of the Grill by Ross Dobson $39.99 at QBD The Bookshop

sunshineplaza.com 31

To make the dressing, put the olive oil, chilli and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat. When the chilli and garlic start to sizzle, cook for just 1–2 minutes longer, then remove from the heat. Stir in the vinegar, sugar and salt and mix until dissolved. Pour into a jar or bowl and set aside to infuse. Put the lentils in a small saucepan and pour in enough water to cover. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the lentils are tender but not mushy – this may take as little as 5 minutes, or up to 20 minutes, depending on the age of your lentils, so check them regularly. Drain well and set aside. Preheat the barbecue grill to medium. Cut the pumpkin in half, then scoop out and discard the seeds. Leaving the skin on, cut the pumpkin into wedges no thicker than 2 cm. Brush the flesh with the rice bran oil and cook on the grill for 10 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through, checking regularly to ensure it doesn’t burn too much. Put the hot pumpkin in a large bowl with the onion, herbs and lentils. Stir the dressing, then pour it over the pumpkin. Toss gently to combine. Serve warm.
