Tackling last minute wrapping

Make your Christmas gifts as special on the outside as they are on the inside! Here are three creative wrapping styles to try this season, from classic elegance to eco-friendly flair.

 

1. The Classic: Wrapping Paper and Ribbons

 

For a timeless look, opting for traditional wrapping paper and ribbon works beautifully. Choose festive wrapping paper—think rich reds, metallics, or holiday patterns—and wrap it neatly around your gift.

 

Add a ribbon and tie a simple bow for the ultimate classic style or add a sprig of greenery for a natural touch.

 

Classic wrapping is ideal for a picture-perfect stack of presents under the tree and works for all shapes and sizes.

 

 

2. The Artist: Plain Parcel Paper with a Personal Twist

 

Plain brown parcel paper provides a blank canvas for a personal, creative touch. You don’t have to be a professional artist for this style to look good—the handmade look gives it charm! Grab markers or metallic pens to draw snowflakes, holly, or initials. If you prefer precision, use stamps or stencils with festive shapes for a unique look.

 

This style is easy to personalise and is great for getting children involved as a festive craft!

 

 

3. The Eco-Friendly: Wrapping with Fabric

 

For a sustainable option, try wrapping gifts in fabric—which can then be reused. Repurpose scarves, fabric scraps, or tea towels in festive colours or patterns. Place the gift in the centre, fold the fabric around it, and knot it securely. Add a sprig of rosemary or a cinnamon stick for a natural accent.

 

Not only is this eco-friendly, but it also leaves the recipient with a lovely reusable wrap they can enjoy beyond Christmas.
