Map wrapping paper
Using newspaper is a classic choice for DIY gift wrap — but you can take it to the next level by using maps for something colourful and unexpected.
Roller printed paper
Even if you have a large package to decorate, you can use a roller to stamp a festive design for an easy and creative gift wrap.
Potato Stamped paperÂ
Carve your own stamps using potatoes for a cleverly crafty wrapping paper — no drawing skills required.
Chalkboard paper
Doodle all over your gift wrap with fun designs that will bring a smile to anyone’s face.
Pom Pom paper
Felt pom poms give your wrapping paper a touch of whimsy when they’re nestled under the tree.
Cut out wrapping paper
Cut out a simple shape – like a heart or even a Christmas tree – to add a little glitz to your gift.
Nature inspired gift wrap
A sprig of holly, pine or a cinnamon stick is a simple and classy way to add holiday cheer to your wrapping routine. This nature inspired gift wrap was definitely my favourite.
Photo accented gift wrap
Add a personal touch to your gift wrap with a printed keepsake photo for your friend or family member.
Duct tape gift bags
Neon duct tape makes a great envelope bag that’s both colourful and reusable.
Colourful tights wrapping
Use a similar technique to the furoshiki wrap, only updated with colourful nylon tights.
