Beyond the Bow: Creative Gift Wrapping Ideas

Finding the right gift is only the first part. Packaging and wrapping the gifts add an extra layer of thoughtfulness to the gift. It makes the experience of unwrapping even more special! There are many creative ways to wrap a gift compared to the classic gift bag. It's a bonus if the packaging can be reused! Here are some ideas that I've come up with below.

1 ) GIFT BOX

A gift box with a ribbon gives it a clean and luxurious look. The thicker the material of the box, the more luxurious the gift will feel. You can also fill it with filler shredded paper.
