Repost: Cupcake Wrappers

View CommentsTuesday • May 25, 2010 • by DIY Bride

This is one of our most popular requests recently: a cupcake wrapper. What is it? It’s a band of paper that wraps around the outside of a cupcake.

Instructions:

1. Download the template here

2. Print it onto a piece of cardstock

3. Cut it out and use it to trace the shape onto paper. You can fit multiple wrappers on a single sheet of 8.5″ x 11″ paper.

4. Cut out your shapes.

5. Use strong double-sided tape to adhere the cardstock

6. Decorate to your liking

Tips + Hints:

• Linear patterns like lines and plaid don’t work very well because the template is curved. It’ll look wonky.
• Use decorative scissors to cut out the top of the wrapper to add a bit of pizazz.
• Paper punches are great for adding a little extra cuteness, too.
