Gift Wrap Ideas

Eco-friendly Gift

Wrap Star

Gift wrapping is a delightful occasion for creative types during the holidays.  Placing beautifully wrapped gifts under the tree will not only add to your Christmas décor, it also gives you a chance to exercise your artistic abilities.   These Christmas gift wrapping ideas use common materials found around the house and are easy enough for those of us who aren’t so handy with a glue gun.

Tin Foil – With all the baking and cooking during the holidays there is sure to be a surplus of tin foil around the house.  It may not sound like the most glamorous gift wrapping but by adding ribbons and festive decorations, your gift will shine under the tree.

Black sequins, satin ribbons and snowflake cut-outs add a touch of sophistication against a silver background.  Pretty blue and pink pastel star and icicle cut-outs create a charming and magical gift wrap décor.

Eco-Friendly – Using recycled & natural materials is not only good for the environment, it also saves you money.   On Christmas morning, simply put the wrapping back in the recycling bin and eliminate all the unnecessary waste that comes with store-bought wrapping paper.

Brown paper bags and cardboard boxes can be spruced up with shiny green baubles, tinsel or handmade decorations.  Fastening pine needles, pine cones, flower blossoms or yarn to gifts adds a personal touch to Christmas gift-giving.

Gingerbread Gift Tag

Bundle of Goods

Baked Goods – Gingerbread tags and candy canes are sweet additions to any Christmas gift.  When baking Gingerbread, cut small shapes with cookie cutters and poke a hole in the top to fasten.

For a mouthwatering gift, stack varying colors of cupcake papers on top of the gift for a simple yet effective embellishment.
