5 Beautiful Things

 

That’s a Wrap!

I think wrapping gifts is one of my favorite things about the holidays. I like wrapping presents almost as much as I like unwrapping them! I think it is the idea of self-expression that appeals to me – putting that special seal of uniqueness that lets the recipient know they are receiving a gift from YOU. Wrapping can be a very thoughtful and expressive way to show your appreciation for a friend or loved one and it’s really your chance to be creative and play around with interesting ideas that are personal and fun. Below are five wrapping ideas: unexpected colour palettes, DIY wrapping paper and hand-crafted gift toppers. Click here to see where each of these ideas came from and to see a few more ideas you might find inspiring. Leave a comment below telling us how will be wrapping your gifts this year.
