So my niece Madison’s 3rd birthday is in April. What a big girl!
I work near Madison Street in Chicago and couldn’t resist taking a photo of a street sign to top her package. The sign perfectly fit with the theme of the handmade present I made her (I’ll be posting her gift soon).
Madison is such a popular name in the U.S. so I hope this idea will come in handy for you.
Supplies:
- Free photo of Madison Street in Chicago
- Wrapping paper
- Two-sided tape and regular scotch tape
- Pinking Shears
- Paper scissors
- Computer
and printer
Wrap your gift in wrapping paper. Print my Madison Street photo on 8 1/2 x 11 paper, either in color or black in white, your choice. Cut all four sides with pinking shears to create zigzagged edges. Using double-sided tape, secure the photo onto the top of the box. Voila!

I love your ideas!! We hung the sign on her door to her bedroom - she loves it :)
