Gift Wrapping Tips and Trends for 2009
'Tis the Season to be packed, and all the millions of December of the fingers are involved the exciting (and for some, hopeless) task of concealing the gifts on paper. Some people, like me, love Christmas just for housing: the endless creativity. However, another port can be a little taedium vitae for the ancient ceremony.
Cheer up. Gift wrap is still in fact, Christmas wrapping becomes more interesting every year. Here are some tried and true ideas (and some off the wall) that you may want to try in 2009.
Dream a green Christmas
Red and green are Christmas colors of choice. Why not put a little more green gift-friendly choice this year the environment? Some may misinterpret the "green wrapper" to be dull, boring and so little Christmas. Not true. green gift wrap is now so exciting and colorful as their non-green. Green packaging can be as simple as buying recycled wrapping paper. Other ideas are using a bag that can be reused next year. If you want to try to wrap your gift in a paper bag that can be colored, exploited, and creatively enhanced with some works of art. Think things that are around the house that could serve as the calendar pages of old gift, wrap, an old map, color or even newspapers. Or, add a real touch of green to increase a wrapped gift with pineapples and holly leaves.
Make gift packing
Ditch wrapping paper completely, and go with a different idea, "wrap" the gift of another gift. For example, say you want to get your brother a set of keys. You may need a new toolbox, too. Buy him a tool box or tool bag, and allow it to function as its packaging. Almost any gift can be easily 'Wrapped' in an attractive wicker basket. A gift box beautifully decorated cedar or pine box is as appreciated as the gift itself. A new pot is an alternative to conclude a series of kitchen knives. Even something as mundane as a practice pitcher or laundry basket, tackle box, vase, or in a bowl make wonderful gifts and packaging.
Double wrap
Have you ever thought of wrapping a gift twice? Without doubt, add a little creativity and style. Metal style wrapping paper often have some transparency to them. The use of wrapping paper, bold color below it adds a bright color to work wrapping. Consider purchasing see through wrapping paper or cellophane to add an accent to the jacket. Even plastic wrap, used carefully, is a clear improvement with Christmas wrapping paper.
Add an extra gift
Maybe you're still committed to the traditional method of wrapping paper good-ol 'Santa and a matching tie. Go ahead, but try to add a second gift outside of the envelope. It can be as simple as tying a candy cane on top. Or, go a little further. Instead of a tape, try a scarf. Instead of a bow paper, try a hair bow. A jump rope can replace string, and some fishing lure color can be an attractive alternative to the gift of a fisherman.
The bags are still in
Even if you are not spending hours wrapping your gifts, you can still use a bag. The bags are attractive, easy and simple. With a few pieces of colored tissue paper and a bag, the wrap is done.
