We are already thinking about Christmas gifts, and certainly something that gives the gift personality is the way to wrap it. We teach you then Five original ways to wrap gifts in an original way so that you surprise this Christmas.
You can do it with the help of the kids, if you want them to participate in the preparation of the gifts. It will be an added value to know that they themselves have collaborated to make the perfect gift.
Drawings made by the kids
It is the most original use children's drawings to wrap gifts, in addition to giving it a personalized touch. You will only need a large sheet of paper (Ikea sells some ideal for this project) and put the little hands to work.
They can use markers, pencils or watercolors. Then you add a beautiful ribbon with a bow, a tag and it looks beautiful.
Paper with stamped fingers
If yesterday we needed the fingers of the children to decorate Christmas balls today it is time to pretend to decorate a paper with stamped fingers.
This idea that I have seen in Splash of something, is inspired by a garland of lights and is very simple to do (you can see the step by step in the blog).
You will also need a large folio, 3 or 4 colors of finger paint, a marker and a piece of paper to make the loop.
Personalized with the child's name
They will love to see your name on the gift, so a good suggestion of Sweet Rose Studio is to trim the letters of the child's name in eva rubber.
Eva rubber is a very easy to work flexible material that comes in plates of different colors. It is available at stationery stores.
You just have to wrap the gift, which can be with a craft paper (you don't need to buy wrapping paper), add a bow and paste the letters to form the child's name.
With confetti decoration
Another very simple idea is to add it to the paper a decoration with confetti. You can make strips along the paper as they teach us in the blog 3 @ 12 or do it in the way you like (stars, snowflakes, hearts, the child's name, etc).
You have to make the design you have chosen with enough glue stick and then drop the confetti on top. Repeat as many times as necessary so that it is well dense.
With snowflakes
I love cutting snowflakes to decorate the house at Christmas, but it wouldn't have occurred to me that they can also be used to decorate Christmas presents. I've seen it in How about orange and I've fallen in love, so I'll try it.
On the internet you can find instructions with tutorials and designs to learn how to fold and trim snowflakes. So get colorful sheets, good scissors and get to work. A secret so that you are left without folding marks: iron the flakes once cut.
I hope you liked these five ways to wrap gifts in an original way and that they serve you both for Christmas and to make a special gift at any time. But above all, I hope you are so beautiful that it is worth opening them.
