Christmas is a magical time of year. It’s hard not to get excited when December rolls around. I actually don’t even have to wait for December as I always think about my Christmas wrapping theme months in advance. I like to think about it early so I can pull all of the pieces in to create a beautiful theme that everyone can enjoy! You can do this too with a few easy steps.
You will start by picking out a wrapping paper. This year I went with a hunter green paper with gold deer, white snowflakes and trees in a lighter green. I purchased this at Sams Club. Now if you know anything about Sam’s Club it is that they have very large quantities. Their wrapping paper is no exception. With wrapping paper in this amount you will only have to buy one roll of your main paper.
Next you will want to pick out the accessories. You should pick a second basic wrapping paper, gift bags, tags, tissue paper and ribbon. You can get them at any super market or craft store or buy online. This year I went with a simple white paper, white and gold tags, gold and green tissue paper, white and gold bags and a variety of gold ribbons. You can experiment with different types of bows and other ways to use your ribbon.
Finally, you just start putting everything together and place the gifts under the tree. I thoroughly enjoy watching my loved ones open the gifts I have wrapped just for them. I hope I have sparked a little creativity in you to inspire your own wrapping theme!
Merry Christmas,
Cristie
