DIY Christmas Wrapping Ideas

We buy wrapping paper with super cute designs for all occasions. However, we want to show the people love and care about that the gift they are receiving reflects our gratitude, love, and admiration. A well thought out gift deserves gift wrapping that is easy to make while looking like a piece of art. Here are some DIY Christmas wrapping ideas.

1) Striped Straw Gift Topper

Straws have more uses than just drinking beverages through. Gather a few red and white striped straws into a fan-like shape and pin the center down with a red tac for this festive DIY gift topper.

2) Stacked Snowman

If you went all out for black-Friday shopping and have more gifts than your tree can handle, stack them next to the tree like your own personal indoor snowman. The best part is, this snowman will never melt.

3) Chalk Board Wrapping

Sometimes our gifts don’t need fancy ribbons and bows to look stunning or festive during the holiday season. Just black wrapping paper and chalk is needed to complete this DIY Christmas wrapping.

4) Pine Cone and Berries

A touch of nature is a popular trend with gift wrapping. This DIY Christmas wrapping idea is simple and charming as the pine cones take the place of the bow.

5) Candy Cards

These DIY Christmas wrapping ideas add a personal and sweet touch to any gift you’re wrapping this season.

6) Christmas Reindeer

Need some cute DIY Christmas wrapping ideas that are easy to make? These cute and goofy reindeer are comical and creative for those that want to make their presents stand out under the Christmas tree this year.

7) Peppermint Paper

What’s Christmas without peppermint? This is a simple Christmas wrapping idea that’s easy to make and personalize.

8) Bows Made From Ribbon

Pre-made ribbons just don’t add that self-made pride after wrapping a gift. Try making a bow from scratch with some ribbon and a pin. You’re bow will never be thrown away as it will be kept as a keep-sake for the person receiving your gift.

9) Frosted Pine Cones

Winter is a beautiful season filled with snow, Christmas, new year’s, and posh beauty. If you need a winter theme gift wrap idea try this frosted pine cone and puffy silver bow. It’s a gorgeous look that’s perfect form any formal occasion.

10) Christmas Tree Bulbs
