How to wrap Christmas gifts?

What is the most exciting moment of Christmas Eve? There can only be one answer – it's of course "diving" under the Christmas tree and opening Christmas gifts! So, to further fuel the curiosity of your loved ones and bring them even more joy at this long-awaited moment, it's worth paying a little attention to the beautiful packaging of Christmas gifts. A bag, a gift box, or perhaps charming decorative paper and colorful ribbons? A wide range of gift wrapping accessories awaits you at Pepco. Check which ones will be most useful for you!

Creative ways to wrap gifts

Nice gift wrapping for Christmas is not just a matter of aesthetics. It's also a way to express our care and attention to the person receiving the gift. When we receive a gift that is beautifully wrapped, we immediately get the impression that the person who chose it has spent a lot of time and attention on it. This makes the gift even more special and brings us even more joy.

Wrapping Christmas gifts for the people we love is one of the most pleasant parts of Christmas preparations for many of us. Scissors, tape, and various accessories usually come into play. At Pepco, you'll find many useful packaging materials, especially:

  • Wrapping paper – useful for wrapping items with regular shapes (e.g., books, cosmetic sets, or board games). However, wrapping gifts in decorative paper requires a bit of time. You also need sharp scissors and tape.
  • Gift bags – these are ready-made packaging for your gifts! Gift bags are a good choice when you don't have much time. Just put the gift in the bag and you're done.
  • Decorative gift boxes – an equally convenient and interesting option as a gift bag. The gift boxes you'll find in Pepco's assortment are durable, elegant, and available in a wide range of sizes to choose from. Importantly, a gift box from Pepco can be used in many ways later – for example, for storing small items.
  • Tissue paper – although some associate it mainly with school art projects, it can be a great material for wrapping a gift. It works perfectly even when you have an irregularly shaped item to wrap – just wrap it in tissue paper and tie it with an elegant ribbon.
  • Ribbons, strings, bows, and other decorations – it's hard to imagine creative gift wrapping without using these kinds of details. A subtle bow or ribbon will be the culmination of a beautiful package.

You can also think about additional decorations for gift packages – for example, cinnamon sticks, dried orange slices, or fresh spruce branches work well in this role.

How to wrap gifts easily and aesthetically?

It's not as difficult as it might seem. Follow a few rules, and your gifts will be wrapped creatively, aesthetically, and without any problems.

  • Choose the right size of paper or gift bag. The gift should be wrapped tightly in paper, but not too loosely.
  • Make sure the gift is securely wrapped. Protect it from damage, e.g., with paper or bubble wrap.
  • Decorations should be chosen according to the type of gift and occasion. Avoid overly large and flashy decorations that can distract from the gift itself.

Don't have time or are you unsure if your manual skills will be sufficient to beautifully wrap a gift using decorative paper? We have a much more convenient solution for you. In our offer, you will also find various cardboard boxes that are perfect for wrapping gifts. Additionally, in Pepco's offer, you will find a wide selection of decorative boxes and bags for gifts in various sizes and shapes!

How to wrap gifts of unusual shapes and sizes?

Some gifts require even more creativity when wrapping. This applies particularly to large and irregularly shaped items. How to deal with them? It's simple:

  • For gifts of irregular shape, you can use wrapping paper, foil, or tissue paper. These materials can be easily cut to size or creatively wrapped around the gifts.
  • Large items are most conveniently placed in gift bags or you can reach for a large gift box.
  • If you want the gift to be more eco-friendly, you can use recycled materials. You can use old newspapers, cardboard, or paper bags for wrapping gifts.
How to wrap bedding, a mug, and candles for Christmas?

Bedding is a practical and elegant gift that is suitable for any occasion, including Christmas. To wrap bedding as a gift, it's worth choosing the right wrapping paper. The paper should be large enough to cover the entire bedding. You can also use brown wrapping paper with additions such as branches, baubles, or napkins. Bedding can be wrapped in a classic way, folding it into a cube and wrapping it with paper. You can also wrap it in a gift box.

If the mug has an interesting pattern, it's worth highlighting it, e.g., by wrapping it in paper of the same color or pattern. If it's made of delicate material, e.g., porcelain, it's worth protecting it further from damage by placing it in a cardboard box.

To wrap a candle as a gift, it's worth choosing the right wrapping paper. The paper should be large enough to cover the entire candle. The candle can be wrapped in a classic way, folding it into a cube and wrapping it with paper. You can also wrap it in a gift box.

Regardless of the type of wrapping you choose, it's worth remembering a personal touch. You can include a card with wishes or a dedication with the gift. Gift wrapping is not only a way to protect them from damage, but also an expression of care and attention for the person receiving the gift. By choosing the right wrapping method and materials, you can create a gift that will be not only practical but also beautiful and unique. At Pepco, you'll find all the necessary gift wrapping materials!
