8 Creative Gift Wrapping ideas

22 Dec

I’ve pulled together 8 simple but effective wrapping techniques to help you elevate your wrapping. Some of these are super basic and others are a little more complex. Hopefully, they’ll inspire you as you wrap! These are the techniques I’ve learned through styling jobs, and the ones I taught in my recent classes for Oka too. Thanks also to Kinshipped for letting me use their papers, cards and gift tags for the demo.

1. The basics: wrapping a box neatly with zero waste

2. Paper: Front folds

3. Paper: Fan folds

4. Paper: make your own gift bag! (Great for awkward shapes!)

5. Paper: Scrunched

6. Fabric: Ripped ribbon

7. Fabric: Using fabric like you’d use paper

8. Fabric: Furoshiki knot
