The long-awaited time to gather together is coming ! It’s the perfect time to exchange gifts with family and friends. Have you already started your Christmas gift list yet ? Here are some great holiday gift wrapping inspirations spotted on Instagram, when the time will come to wrap up your gifts.
1- A pouch with spruce branches
We love the originality in this packaging, with its small pocket to hold your greeneries. It is possible to add spruce stems, berries or eucalyptus. Jute rope or ribbon can then be added to decorate the gift and attach a label with the recipient’s name. You can choose the color of your choice and buy kraft paper available at most hardware stores.
2- A ribbon Christmas tree
Another interesting idea is to use a holiday ribbon to make a Christmas tree! You can get the color you want, either a green or red ribbon. Attach it with a little double-sided tape and you’ll have an cheap and fun DIY gift wrap. Small tip: add a star to the top of your tree and some red berries to make it even more festive. To do this, cut a star ornament in half and glue the flat part to your wrapping.
3- A gift decorated with a red bow and berries
Why make it complicated when you can make it simple? The classic red ribbon is still a safe choice when it comes to wrapping Christmas gifts. Make a beautiful bow and let the excess ribbon fall over your present for an elegant touch. Finish the gift decoration by adding a stem of artificial berries under your ribbon for a twist on traditional wrapping.
4- A plaid ribbon with greenery or berry rings
For a natural theme that will perfectly match your green Christmas tree, decorate your gifts with rings of greenery and berries. A few pine cones can also be glued to your wrapping with hot glue. Follow the trend by wrapping the gift with a nice plaid ribbon or go rustic by hanging a wooden ornament!
5- A Christmas gift bag for irregular shapes
While it’s easy to wrap a square or rectangular gift, it’s more difficult when it comes to irregularly shaped objects. For example, a bottle of wine, a plush, or a round pillow. For these, we suggest you go for gift bags in holiday colors! Available in all sizes, all you have to do is add tissue paper. What’s more, if you’re in a hurry, gift bags will save you a lot of time.
6- A Christmas tree with artificial fir
If you liked the idea of the ribbon to form a tree on your wrapping, you will probably like this nice idea! All you need to do is make a Christmas tree with an artificial tree branch. You will also need a black pencil and mini garlands available at craft stores.
7- A rose bouquet for flower lovers
Under the same idea, you can make artificial flower bouquets with your favorite ones ! For example, consider gluing rose stems and small white wildflowers to the visible side of the gift. The options are endless and you can do this with a range of other greeneries, even Christmas flowers like poinsettia or some feathers.
All that's left is to wish you a Happy Holiday!
