Surprising our friends and family with gifts is always difficult. But so is wrapping Christmas presents. Therefore, take advantage of the fact that there is still time for Christmas and plan how you want to wrap the gifts. Take care of finding the necessary materials and we will inspire you with the best ideas seen with which you will succeed this Christmas.

1. RED TIES

Red is elegant and looks good on paper but also in small details like these bows. Add a similar one in velvet and you will see how sophisticated the Christmas gifts are.

2. PINEAPPLES, HOLLY AND MUCH MORE

Pine cones, holly trees… are just some of the natural elements that we see the most at Christmas. Take advantage and use them to wrap Christmas gifts. Mix it up with kraft wrapping paper like this one we’ve seen.

3. USE CHRISTMAS TWINE

All the details when it comes to gift wrapping count, including the twine. Use red and white twine, which somewhat imitates Christmas canes. To finish decorating the gift add some leaves or mini crowns with Christmas motifs.

4. CHOOSE PAPERS IN GREEN

Green is in fashion this year in interior decoration and also when it comes to wrapping gifts. Also, green is one of the most used colors at Christmas, along with red, gold, or silver.

5. USE CHECKERED RIBBONS

If you like pictures but in small doses, you can also opt for this alternative with ribbons. Add the finishing touch to the gift with wide checkered ribbons. We recommend choosing a smooth paper to match the color of the ribbon.

6. WITH FABRIC?

Well, it is possible, and it is also a sustainable way to wrap gifts this Christmas. Pick a fabric you like, Christmas or not, and wrap each package like this. You can use that fabric later to safely upholster a cushion, pouf…

7. WITH DRIED FRUIT

Many times some pieces of fruit are dried to decorate centerpieces, but why not also use it to decorate gifts? Take advantage of this technique and add some pieces of fruit like orange to gifts. If you want the gift to be more aromatic, add a cinnamon stick.

8. DECORATE WITH PHOTOS

Pinterest

If you want to make an impressive gift, add snapshots of memory together or simply of the person who will receive the package. It is a very nice way to decorate the gift at Christmas.

9. MATCH THE COLORS

Pinterest

We don’t always have to go to the red classics. Black is also a color that can be used for gift wrapping. It is an elegant shade that allows you to easily add decorative elements like this one. Go with gold and even add small cardboard cutouts with Christmas motifs.
