Red-and-green is SO last year
Okay, so not everyone will get behind this trend, but you should definitely try it out. Change things up this holiday season and throw the class red-and-green out the window! Instead of red, opt for pink. Instead of a normal green, choose teal or lime.
The gift wrap on the top left is my personal favorite.

Oooo, so kraft-y!
A lot of experts are taking a subtler approach to holiday wrap this year, and we’re with them 100%. After all, our Kraft wrapping paper sets are our bestsellers. There are so many gift wrap ideas you can combine with simple brown paper packaging!

Personalization + stamps = WIN
This year, people are letting go of handwritten to/from labels on their Christmas gifts (aka the hints our children don’t need) and stamping away instead! Use a stamp to press your child’s name on one of our gift tags to get that cute, DIY look.

Who ties the knot anymore?
You know what else is out? Tying the knot! That’s right, tying ribbons into bows is no longer “in”. Weaving is the new giftwrapping trend that’s taking over. And we’re thanking the gift-wrapping gods for that! Say goodbye to all those times you spent worrying whether your bows were tight enough, too lopsided, droopy, or just plain off.
Weave as many ribbons as you want, from top to bottom or from bottom to top. With our amazing variety of colorful ribbons, you’ll be able to complement any gift wrap you choose.

5 Holiday Wrapping Trends to End All Wrapping Trends
With the holiday season just around the corner, it's time to start thinking about how to make your gifts stand out. One way to do that is by staying on top of the latest wrapping trends. From eco-friendly options to luxurious embellishments, there are plenty of ways to elevate your gift wrapping game this year. Whether you're a minimalist or love to go all out, these trends offer something for everyone. So, let's take a look at five holiday wrapping trends that are sure to end all wrapping trends.
Eco-Friendly Options
As sustainability becomes increasingly important, eco-friendly wrapping options are gaining popularity. From recycled paper to reusable fabric wraps, there are plenty of ways to reduce waste while still creating beautiful packages. Not only does this trend benefit the environment, but it also adds a thoughtful touch to your gifts.
Luxurious Embellishments
If you're looking to add a touch of luxury to your gifts, consider incorporating luxurious embellishments into your wrapping. Think satin ribbons, metallic accents, and ornate bows. These details can take your presents to the next level and make them truly stand out under the tree.
DIY Personalization
Personalization is a huge trend in gift-giving, and the same goes for wrapping. DIY personalization allows you to add a unique and heartfelt touch to your gifts. Whether it's hand-stamped tags, custom stickers, or hand-lettered messages, adding a personal touch to your wrapping can make your gifts even more special.
Alternative Wrapping Materials
Step outside the traditional wrapping paper box and consider alternative materials for your gifts. From fabric wraps to newspaper and even scarves, there are plenty of creative ways to wrap your presents. Not only does this trend offer a unique look, but it also provides an extra gift for the recipient.
Tips for Using Metallics
Metallic wrapping paper and accents are a popular choice for the holiday season. However, using metallics can be tricky. To avoid a tacky look, opt for a balance of matte and metallic finishes. Additionally, consider pairing metallics with neutral colors to create a sophisticated and elegant look.
Embracing Minimalism
Minimalist wrapping is a trend that continues to gain traction. Embracing simplicity can create a clean and modern look for your gifts. Consider using simple kraft paper, twine, and greenery for a minimalist yet stylish presentation. This trend is not only visually appealing but also reduces waste and focuses on the true meaning of gift-giving.
