The natural sprigs, minimalist tags and striped baker’s twine take this basic paper to the next level.
We’re obsessed with this paper-free wrapping style. All you need is a colorful scarf or furoshiki (Japanese wrapping cloth) to create this eco-friendly presentation. (Also, two presents in one!)
Branch out of the usual printed paper and choose a sparkly neutral instead. Then glue some mini pom-poms to a twig and you’ve got a delightfully unexpected package.
Mini pinecones, gingham ribbon, washi tape and greenery elevate this simple box to vintage-cool status.
Relive your childhood and break out the toy cars and trucks to make an adorable wintry scene atop your gift. Chances are it will get a place of honor under the tree.
A fun party idea: Gather your best girls for an evening of wine and gift-wrapping. The theme: Bring your own pom-poms.
This is a fun one for kids. Help them draw a car onto kraft paper and finish it off with a faux snow-dusted Christmas tree.
Gifting a crowd? Shake things up by finishing each package with an initial. Not only will this help you stay organized; it also proves you are the queen of thoughtfulness. (Hint: The letters could also serve as ornaments. Gifts on gifts on gifts.)
Elegant and unexpected: Pair florals with feathers, a spray of gold berries and twine.
Find some beautiful winterscapes and affix them to kraft paper with satin ribbon and glue for an archival feel.
