Yup!! Kinda slow this year but I'm getting there! For meantime, Let me share my personal gift wrapping ideas and some money saving tips along the way as well. I love wrapping presents, it makes me feel like Mrs.Claus, do you feel same way? (wink:) Let the excitement come begin! C'mon lets start wrapping those Christmas presents... and be ready for Christmas.,,:)
GIFT BOX -
The most popular gift wrapping of all time for the reason that it is the simplest way to wrap present. Be creative with your wrapping and add some bows and ribbons! Whoala!!
TIPS:-When your shopping for clothes, shoes, books or even toys. Don't forget to ask the cashier for gift box. Some store give free gift boxes especially this holiday season. By doing this, you can save money buying gift boxes. This makes your gift wrapping so much easier and it look so nice as well.
Money Saving Tips:
- Recycled- If you have wrapping paper from last year use those!
- BUY it when its on SALE- Especially now that Christmas is getting close they usually go on sale. Take advantage of those:)
- Ribbons/Bows-Put a little perfection to your gift by adding cute bows or ribbons.
GIFT BAGS
This is the easiest wrapping gift ever, WHY? simply because you just carefully put everything in a gift bag put a tissue paper and whola! best wrapping ideas ever!!!:) This is perfect for toys, clothes, anything you can think off as long as it fits on the gift bags. They varied on sizes so also perfect for jewelry and gift cards..
Money Saving Tips:
- Buy Gift bag in bundle- this way you can save money instead of buying by each. Also, look closely how much the individual gift bags are, maybe they are much cheaper compare to the bundle ones.
- Gift bags doesn't require tapes, bows or ribbons. ( pretty cool)
Giant Bag/ Giant Bows-
This is perfect for BIG STUFF. My in-laws gave us TV ( 2 years ago) and this is what they used to wrapped the TV (Giant Christmas Bag)- Just ask the store if they sale this kind of bag, I've seen few at some stores. Also if you can't find any Giant Bag big ribbons will do!
Some gifts are already in the box itself and no need to put them on gift boxes or gift bags like books, perfume and some toys. Just simply wrap the gifts and Whola! Merry Christmas!

Deletenice tips as always, sis. i agree, some malls are using pretty paper wrappers nowadays. i remember my brother gave my son a gift and he didn't even bother to wrap it, hahaha! well, that's because the paper wrapper that they used to pack the item is already cute. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Sis. I agree, if its already cute you don't need to wrap.
DeleteInteresting tips... well we all need to save not only money but of course the resources from where these gifts wrappers and other materials came from. It's more of saving things and making the best out of that materials. Nothing beats the old self made gifts and wrappers.
