Christmas Wrapping Paper Capsule
A Christmas wrapping paper capsule for that little extra pizzazz to your gift giving and style under your tree!
Wrapping gifts should never be an afterthought, but sometimes it does get a bit lost in the hustle and bustle of the season as we try to do ALL the things! That’s why I’ve rounded up a gorgeous capsule collection of the prettiest Christmas wrapping papers, ribbons, and gift tags. There are so many options out there it can be daunting to sort through. Or you end up just grabbing that generic tube of gift wrap as you leave the store and then it just doesn’t fit your aesthetic.
Grab a cup of something warm and get inspired by my wrapping paper ideas + I’m sharing a tutorial for the ultimate velvet bow like the red one on the floral gift!
I like to create a wrapping station under the tree in the weeks leading up to Christmas that way I can wrap presents as I they come in. I get to sit by the twinkling lights to soak up a little Christmas magic and make what could feel like a chore more festive! Here’s what I keep in my “station”:
- Sharp scissors
- Scotch tape in a weighted holder
- Ribbons
- Gift tags
- Several gift papers – corral them in a pretty container
This year under the tree in my living room for the Jolly Blossoms look, I’m going traditional. Classic red and green with just a hint of pink. Think luxurious velvets and satin, glistening gold, crisp whites, and classic Christmas motifs.
Aren’t these “12 Days of Christmas” gift tags darling? Available over in the Curio Shop!
