Gift wrapping: express your feelings with the help of packaging

In the modern world, even the most ordinary, you can say - "on duty" gift-souvenir with ease turns into an original thing, interesting and memorable. All this is due to a variety of ways and forms of packaging - branded, which is decorated with purchases in supermarkets or shopping centers, or manual, to the creation of which is applied their own labor, imagination and talent.

Packaging gifts with their own hands has a lot of advantages, and the first of them is the opportunity to express your feelings for the person to whom the gift is intended. Many people think that such a package is very simple - put the gift in a box, wrap it with the brightest paper and tie it with a ribbon. No doubt, this option is universal - it can be presented to a colleague at work, and a friend, and not too close relative. But here for people close - beloved, "second half", children, parents or best friends, a gift is always desirable to make out not only neatly and beautifully, but also extraordinarily.

Before you make a gift package, you should read a few simple rules. Firstly, if the gift that you are going to decorate nicely is placed in a package in width, but it does not take more than a half to the height, it can be packed right in this package - the remaining part can be perfectly used for decoration in the form of fans, braids, Bows and ribbons. Secondly, in the case when it is necessary to decorate several items (CDs or jars with creams), it is better not to combine them in one package, but to arrange them in separate bright packages and tie them together with a lush ribbon. Third, beautiful gift wrappings, if they are not transparent, should not be equipped with greeting cards, putting them inside. It will be much more attractive to look at a postcard of a small format, attached with a ribbon to decorative bows or other elements.

A few words need to be said about the actual packaging. An important part of it is a filler material that serves to fill in a box, a basket or a bright bag of empty space. The most simple variant of such material is colored paper shavings, but also raffia is often used - leaves and stems of plants, dried and painted in different colors, finely chopped tissue paper - still, and sisal - colored fibers resembling a tangle of thread and felt - soft floral Material of different colors, translucent, reminiscent of fabric.

In most cases, many people do not work too hard with wrapping their presents, choosing a more convenient way - packages, but wrapping gifts with their own hands using paper is much more original. The best choice for this is a gift kraft paper, produced in ten-meter rolls, has a matte color and cross-stamping, which makes it seem a bit ribbed to the touch. Often used paper is quiet - very thin and airy in appearance, able to turn into unusual decorative packaging designs or serve as the material of its filler. A polysylc is a good solution - a one-color paper, glossy and thin, resembling both a film and a thin foil. And even used for the most part to decorate floral arrangements, corrugated paper can come in handy, as gifts wrapped with it, looking unusually exclusive.

Packaging gifts with their own hands - it's very interesting, as here you can show your imagination anywhere. You can choose a variety of methods for decorating presents: baskets made of natural materials, beautiful, ecologically clean and very attractive by their naturalness, bags of different fabrics, including transparent film, and boxes of all sizes and shapes, materials and colors. In the baskets it is best to put gifts in the form of sweets or flowers, in pouches are successfully placed gifts of complex shapes or in large quantities, and boxes - the most common gift wrapping with your own hands - will be an excellent location for everything that you want to put there.
