Not many sleeps til Santa left! With Christmas just around the corner, I wanted to give you my top three gift wrapping tips to make the wrapping as beautiful as the present!
1. Recycle it!
When it comes to choosing the paper, no-one said you had to use your Christmas paper- any paper will do- get creative! Wallpaper, newspaper, maps and my favorite, comic book paper! This is the perfect touch that can add a little of you creativity into the gift and what's more, it's vintage. In addition, this can be personalized, in a way. For example if you have a beauty lover, wrap your gift up in a magazine page.
Short on paper? Re-use colorful plastic bags. Triple-bag the gift, knot together the handles, then cut the tops of the loops and fan out the pieces.
2. Bring the gift outside!
This is a creative and original way of thinking outside the box- literally! Bring the gift out! In other words, add fun touch by securing the gift with a embellished hair tie for one lucky girl. another idea is to tie the present with a jump rope rather than ribbon. Another nifty idea as a hostess gift is to wrap a bottle of wine in a pretty dish towel for a 2 in 1 gift idea.
3.Thinking Outside the Box!
Decorative gift boxes are quick and require no wrapping and the recipient can also reuse the box as decor or a desk organizer
Do you have any tips and tricks?
Love, Shoba
