Done with the shopping? Now let’s move on to gift-wrapping! There are people who just take gift-wrapping for granted. Gift wraps would just be teared, crumpled, and trashed upon opening the gift anyway, so why bother? But there are also people who are meticulous with wrapping gifts. For who would not want beautifully wrapped presents under their Christmas tree, right? This would bring a more Christmasy feeling in the atmosphere!
In
this regard, I invited a friend, Divine Grace “Irish” Ebale to help me with
some gift-wrapping ideas. She had
experience in this field and she just has an eye for details. The number one thing she shared to me was to
be creative. So, read on for her gift-wrapping
ideas wherein we also made use of some recyclable materials in order to save
good ol’ Mother Earth.
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #1 Cloth Gift Wrap
Scrap cloth, old scarves, and worn-out table cloth or picnic
blankets can be used as gift wraps. Just
simply wrap your present with it and tie it into a knot then into a bow. That’s just so easy and unique that your
recipient would surely love!
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #2 Eco-Friendly Paper Gift Wrap
Old calendars, magazines, and newspapers can be used as gift
wraps. Never throw these stuffs away, learn
the art of recycling ‘em!
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #3 Kids’ Artwork Gift Wrap
The works of the kids are just so lovely to look at. They resemble playfulness and innocence that
whoever receives the gift wrapped with it would definitely have that big smile
on his/her face!
Thanks, Honey Grace for Your Special Participation!:) |
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #4 Stamped Brown Paper Gift Wrap
Brown paper is made from recycled paper and it costs very
low in the bookstore. Had it stamped
with the name of your recipient so you can have it personalized. Take note, personalized gifts are much more
appreciated for they symbolize your thoughtfulness!
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #5 Japanese Paper Gift Wrap
Japanese paper is also cheap and convenient to use. You can have it in plain blue, plain red, or
plain green colors. So if you want to
emphasize the ribbons and other decors you’re accenting your gift with, use
Japanese paper for this would not go against with ‘em.
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #6 Boxes and Yarns
If the box of your gift is already presentable enough, just
tie colorful yarns around it. That’s
just no fuss at all!
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #7 Miniature Plants and Ribbons
If you wish to give a plant, see to it that it is a
bonsai. Then just tie ribbons around its
stems and the pot. It’s respectful not
to give it bare!
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #8 Broken Accessories
Got a pine leaf fallen from your Christmas tree? Don’t throw it! Use it.
I know you’ve also got a lot of other broken things in your accessories
box – broken fashion bracelets, earrings without pair, buttons, etc. Use them to accentuate your presents!
Irish’s Gift-Wrapping Idea #9 Modern Gift Wrap
If you ran out of the above-listed recyclable materials,
modern gift wraps always come in handy.
Just put some ribbons around it for gifts without ribbons are lifeless!
