Gift Wrapping Suggestions

Even as a young child I believed that gifts are made more extraordinary if its presentation is personalized. A well wrapped treat is the result of an individual providing not only a present but his creativity and energy. All the effort makes a person truly feel valued and extraordinary. Sometimes it even feels as though the presentation is more significant than the present.

This Holiday season why don't we make our gifts touch the hearts of our family members through the effort we devote to wrapping them. One method that some people use to wrap presents is to work with handmade paper. Surprisingly basic elements like a number of ribbons, brown parcel paper, twine plus some pieces from nature like a shell can transform into elegant gift wrappers. Wrap the present in a typical manner. Next, use multi-colored ribbons or twine. Lastly, make use of a floral wire to affix ornamental accents like holly sprigs.

Yet another technique to make the gift more interesting is by using differently designed wrappers. You could cover half the present with one particular design and the other half using a complementary design. Another way of using two(2) different patterns is to first cover the gift with a single solid colored paper. The other wrapping paper is cut into strips and taped onto the wrapped gift to produce patterns.

Making use of ribbons could also help make ones' gift stand out and get noticed. Making big bows are easy, start by tying a regular ribbon. Secure three additional bows on the knot of the first ribbon, fan the ribbons out to make the bow more fluffy. If simpler designs are more your speed then a simple knot on top of the gift will be acceptable.

A more personal way of wrapping a gift is by rubber stamping the receiver's initials on plain paper and that will become its design. This comes out resembling a monogrammed gift. This technique costs very little because the materials are cheap. If you prefer over the top designs then covering the entire top of the box with ribbons rather than just one is a sure bet. Use small Christmas tree light bulbs and glue them to the box. Glue the light bulbs in the form of a star. Then attach it to a ribbon. If the present is small you can wrap them so they look like a candy cane. The gift should fit into a paper towel cylinder. The tube needs to be covered in white paper towels then a red ribbon will encircle it. Finish it off by covering the tube in Saran wrap.

Another way of wrapping gifts is to use a gift bag or sack. This method is very easy because you only have to put the gift inside.

Lastly in the event the gift is really large like a bike, a great concept is to hide the gift then wrap the instructions up. Once the gift box is opened a treasure hunt of sorts for the gift will then begin.
