6 Tips in Wrapping Your Christmas Gift Creatively

06-01-2012 by

We all love that gift opening moment comes Christmas Eve.  Ripping every wrapper until everything under the tree has been opened.  These gifts spell out a lot of character.  People love creativity.  They would always praise the gift that presents itself daintily amidst boxes in generic wrappers.  And even if they will be ripped off when the clock strikes at 12, that is beside the point.  They are presents.  They have to look presentable and pretty.  Ingenuity is a key in making your gifts look nice.  If it’s going to be the classic boxed way, first that you would have to consider is the wrapper.  You can do it with the wrappers from bookstore.  Choose plain, handmade craft wrapping paper.  This makes the gift look organic, light and appealing.  Some would think that wrappers with ultra fancy prints are the way to go.  However, it’s rather hard to play with printed patterns.  You can go for plain wrappers and then accentuate it.

While you are sorting these stuff, make sure that you design a personalized Santa letter for your child as well. It will be greatly appreciated along with gifts and tokens.

 

 

Once you have chosen your plain craft paper, this is where you could play around:  The ribbons and other ornaments.  For the skilled person who wraps gifts with expertise, you would presumably come up with how to tie and knot ribbons together.  Tie about two to three ribbons of different complementing colors that would of course be a match to your wrapping paper.  There might even be a chance that the receiver would wait longer to open the gift in appreciation to its magnificent wrap.

 

 

For the kids, put tiny embellishment like stickers that will appeal to them.  If it’s an aqua theme you’re doing this Christmas and there’s swimming gear in the box, you may put stickers of fishes and corals on the wrapper.  Even without ribbons, they would definitely look charming.

 

No tapes.  No seams, no uneven looking tapes.  You may use glue guns or double sided tapes to make them as inconspicuous as possible.  Tapes that stick out ruin the gift’s attractiveness.

 

 

If the gift shall be placed in a paper bag, again, choose a plain one.  Add a whimsical pattern of color at the opening with thin papers of different shades that go well with the color of the paper bag.  And then wrap the item with the same papers as well.  You may wrap them to look like huge candies with ribbons on each end.

It is also a good idea to put a personalized letter from Santa inside the bag. Your child will be surprised when he pulls the toy out and there’s a letter that came with it.

 

Use personalized handmade gift tags.  You wouldn’t go telling every recipient that you wrapped everything by yourself, right?  The tag adds a personal touch to every wrapped box.  Write artistically as you can, if at all possible.  But for those with a rather not-so-good handwriting, it doesn’t mean that you would have to resort to the printer.  Write recipient’s names and your message down – with a pen and your own hand.  Something as personal as this can make someone extremely happy.  Write your nickname if it’s for a good friend, but for casual acquaintances or office colleagues who are not so close to you, write the full name.  This may sound silly, but it will help, especially if you have a name as common as John or Jenny.  You will realize this if you’re giving a gift to someone who has the same name as yours.  And what if you have the same name as your boss?  See?  These tiny reminders may be nonsensical to others.  But you might realize that these do make sense once you sit flat on the floor and unload your shopping bags to reveal dozens of gifts that you have to wrap.  Happy wrapping!

Jazzing Up Your Wedding Favors

05-01-2012 by

It is wonderful how creative some brides can be when it comes to things like wedding favors. Somehow they manage to take the plainest of items & turn it into something wonderful, a memorable keepsake that will be treasured for years to come.

So how is it they can stamp their own personality on to just about anything – wedding favors, stationery, even their wedding dress? Whilst many of us get lost in a sea of printed ribbon & paper roses, they are busy creating the most unique of items.

Actually all it takes is a little imagination, some confidence & a clear vision of what you want to achieve. Take an evening to look through magazines, browse the internet & put together montage of those wedding favors you like. From here you should be able to narrow it down to those that fit with your wedding style or theme. Remember colors & small details can be changed; it is really the overall look of the item that you should focus on.

For instance a plain favor box can look amazing with a band of patterned paper wrapped over top.

This is a design that you may have seen time & time again, you just need to envisage it with a paper band that matches your wedding.

A lot can be achieved simply by adding a decorative tag to a box with ribbon. Look for die cut shaped tags – try Ebay; look for shapes that coordinate with your wedding theme or style i.e. hearts, leaves, flowers or bells.

Personalized stickers are another inexpensive way of jazzing up your favor boxes. You will find many online stores that offer customized stickers & just need to simply stick them in place.

With the rise in the popularity of scrap booking & card making, craft stores are full to bursting with beautiful stickers, toppers, die cut shapes, tags & a wealth of innovative decorations which could be applied to wedding favors.

Choosing decorations such as these will lead to the creation of some truly unique favors, unlike any which could be found in the shops & which will take you no time at all to assemble.

For example, take a look at the rubber stamps. Choose one that matches your wedding theme or that has a wedding related image. Choose a colored ink pad – you will find colors range from solids to pearl scents, glitters & metallic. Next pick up some shaped tags for your favor boxes. It is them just a simple process of stamping your tags; once dry writing your message on the blank side & attaching to your boxes. Voila! Unique & stunning wedding favors! If you are feeling really brave then you could stamp the boxes instead before you assemble them. I would advise ordering a few more than you need though so you have some to practice on.

Here are a few other ideas for jazzing up your wedding favors:

• Ribbon a Deux. This stylish look is achieved by placing a thin ribbon over the top of a wider one. Try it with contrasting colors, patterns or fabrics for an eye catching effect. For a touch of glamor you could thread a rhinestone buckle on to sit on the top.
• Dainty Ribbons. Usually favor ribbon is about half inch in width but a wonderfully elegant look can be achieved with ultra thin ribbon which is wrapped twice around the box & finished in a bow (or just a simple knot with short tails if you’re no good at tying bows!). Two colors of ribbon works especially well as an alternative.
• Paper Bands. As mentioned earlier, a band of decorative paper is very elegant & stylish. Look for scrapbook papers, interesting handmade papers or origami papers. You could even trim the edges with decorative scissors for a pretty edge. Simply cut them to size (a guillotine is useful for this) & wrap over the top of the box, gluing in place on the bottom. A card tag, label or sticker looks particularly effect stuck on the top.

These are just a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing. The world of wedding favors is an ever evolving place with new designs & styles coming to life all the time. The trick is to keep it simple & to stay within your capabilities. Try to do something too technical & you may end up disappointed with the results.

Delightful Wedding Favor Boxes

02-01-2012 by

When it comes to your wedding favors there is a wide choice available, but sometimes it is the simplest choices that work the best. So don’t spend hours agonizing over which favors are the best, follow our creative ideas and make your own pretty favor boxes to fill with chocolates.

1. Beautiful Butterflies: Use a simple cube style favor box and wrap with ribbon, present style. Top with a pretty fabric or feather butterfly to coordinate with your wedding colors.

2. Floral Double Act: Again use a cube style favor box and wrap with ribbon. Check out silk and paper flowers in your local craft store or online. Look for two flowers which you could layer one on top of the other, for instance, a flat daisy with a rose on the top. Make the bottom flower the width of the box and the top one the same width as the center of the bottom flower, so that they look in scale.

3.

Plain and Simple: Choose a box which is symmetrical in design, such as a square, rectangle or round. Purchase a square punch (or one to match whatever shape your box is) in two sizes and card which matches the color of your favor boxes and one other coordinating color, for instance, cream and pink. Use the punches to cut two squares, one each from the two colors. The larger square should be cut from the coordinating color and a smaller square from the same color card as the box. Layer the two together – small on large and center on the top of your box. After sticking them in place glue a small flat backed gem or pearl in the center.

4. Classic Monograms: Design your wedding monogram on your computer or if your have nice handwriting or are artistic you could draw it freehand. Add your wedding date underneath and if there is room a small motif between the two.

Cut these out to match the shape of your favor boxes, making them approximately 2mm smaller and stick onto the lid of your boxes. Use card which is the same color as your boxes and stick to just one color of ink.

5. Pretty as a Picture: Choose a medium width satin ribbon in a coordinating color and tie it around your favor box (square or rectangular work best) so it runs over the top. Bring the two ends together on the side and tie in a bow. Using some card in a coordinating color cut out a square and using a decorative punch cut a shape in the center. Take a small piece of craft wire and a bead, thread the bead on to the wire and affix behind the shape you have just cut out. You should have a pretty cut out shape with a bead in the center. Affix this to your box with some double sided padded tape making sure you attach it to the ribbon as well to hold it in place. Punches are available in a wide variety of shapes including hearts, flowers, butterflies and birds.

6. Glitz and Glam: This one is so easy, but looks a million dollars. Use a cube style box and wrap a piece of satin ribbon, firstly around one side of the bottom half of the box, gluing the ends inside. Then do the same for the lid of the box, matching the ribbon up with that on the bottom. Thread a crystal buckle on to the ribbon and position in the center of the lid, and then glue the ends of the ribbon inside.
