Talking about gift wrapping tips now days, especially when
this issue is taken care of by wrapping paper manufacturers, looks a bit odd.
But nothing can beat the value of a gift wrapped in conventional and old
fashioned way. This wrapping shows the recipient the way you value him/her.
Nevertheless, it may not sound fun for many people who do not take much
interest in putting efforts for wrapping the gift (but feel an obligation to
present a gift in better way to their loved ones). Thus, illustrating a few ideas
to make the wrapping process easier and effective should be encouraging for
such people.
Below here, I am going to mention a few DIY ideas for easy
gift wrapping in special way.
Don’t use the bag
Since we talking about wrapping only, using gift bag is the
not the option that we should take into consideration. Although gift bags look
great because of different eye catching designs, presenting a gift box wrapped
in a well-designed paper and tied with a real ribbon is something even more
special. Furthermore, there isn’t required a huge expenditure for wrapping a
gift. You will just need to put some effort in applying your creativity and
that will surely be of utmost value.
Don’t throw the boxes
away
One of the major reasons that people don’t like to wrap the
gifts is that most of the boxes we get cannot endure the wrapping process. The
best solution of this issue is to keep the sturdy boxes and other packaging supplies that we often get from shipping companies. Those rectangular boxes are
sturdy enough and are the best candidates to be used for packing a gift. The
best way you can keep those boxes safe in your home is to use them. You can
keep small items in those boxes until you need a gift box.
Try unconventional
approach
Using holiday gift wrap for preparing holiday gifts is too
much predictable; thus it doesn’t bring prominence to the gift. However, if you
use non-holiday gift wrap for wrapping a holiday gift, it would certainly make
your gift more special. Here, you can use the ribbon that is used for the
holiday gift wrapping. For instance, a holiday gift wrapped in a white paper
and then further decorated by red ribbon tied around it is surely something
that will make your gift recognizable among the bulk of other gifts around it.
Purchase the ribbons
Wrapping paper with simple or no design opens many options
to decorate the gift. The best way to complete the gift decoration is to make
bows using ribbons. Since the wrapping is simple, you can use ribbons of
different designs and colors. Furthermore, buying a ribbon of top quality isn’t
going to make overall gift wrapping expensive because all other packaging
supplies used are either cheap or free.
