Creative Ways to Wrap Christmas Gifts

Thoughtful details can make your Christmas present wrapping as delightful as the gift itself. Are you looking for some creative and interesting ways to wrap your presents and package party favors? Whether you are looking to light up your living room with gifts under a tree, or hosting a fun and festive party, here are some great ways to be creative.

These smart Christmas gift wrapping ideas and favors are perfect for the holidays as well as year-round. This year, make your gift stand out at Christmas. Whether creating custom gift wrap to match your holiday party invitations, or embellishing store-bought wrap for a unique and memorable present, these gift-wrapping ideas are sure to get you into the holiday spirit.

An elegant and sophisticated look can be created with simple white Christmas wrapping paper. Velvet or satin ribbon adds a luxurious feel, and soft, fuzzy yarn is comforting and cozy. Additionally you can coordinate the color to match your invitations and décor. Add decorative buttons, jingle bells, or faux flowers for a finishing touch. For a thoughtful Christmas gift, secure the ribbon with a beautiful tree ornament.

Versatile and wallet friendly craft paper is another way to achieve a chic, stylish look. The best part is that it offers a sturdy support for delicate or oddly-shaped items. Spruce it up with baker’s twine and attach fresh-cut flowers, holly boughs, cinnamon sticks or pinecones with double-sided tape for a beautiful and natural look

You can also use craft paper for a simple but delightful Christmas gift wrap that ties together your soiree. If you are using foil-stamped invitations, use a circular stamp and alternate impressions between metallic gold rose colored and white ink. To complete the look, use a permanent marker with metallic gold ink to hand write the recipient’s name.

Tissue paper always makes for a pretty present. You could design, layer a solid-colored wrapping paper over colored tissue, and cut out a silhouette shape to reveal the paper underneath.

For edible gifts like cookies and candy, all you need is a plain white gift box and a gift tag. If you’re planning a party, this is a perfect plan for favors, and you can even coordinate gift tags and invitations for a pulled-together look.

You don’t have to spend a lot of money to get creative with your Christmas gift wrap; here are a few easy and inexpensive ideas that will make any gift extra special. If you have a favorite fabric, use a photocopier to turn it into wrapping paper. Looking to get creative with store-bought wrap? Fold it into origami stars and use as a party favor, or perch atop a gift for an eye-catching present.
