Team traditional wrapping materials with quirky odds and ends to give your Christmas presents a custom look that’ll stand out under the tree.
Fabric ribbons and interesting trims give a present personality, but they can be pricey. Get maximum impact from your meterage by creating a stack of boxes, top it off with an attractive tree ornament; if it’s for a family, add individual tags to each gift.
For a glam way to go green, recycle your wallpaper offcuts as a one-of-a-kind gift wrap.
Why wrestle with wrapping small, awkwardly-shaped gifts, when you can drop them into a packet or glass jar dressed up with bows and sugary cookie charms?
For a nostalgic vibe with touchy-feely appeal, throw lace trims and silk flowers into the mix. Wind skinny sisal rope around a bottle of wine or roll a small gift up in a monogrammed napkin and tie with ribbons to create a Christmas cracker effect.
