VIDEO: Gift Wrapping 101
Today’s gift wrapping tutorial is something I have been excited about for a long time. I am a huge gift wrapping geek (is there such a thing?!) and I’m proud to have won the Scotch® Brands Most Gifted Wrapper Contest a few years ago. I love putting together beautifully wrapped gifts for every occasion and will always top them off with a handmade gift topper in paper or felt – such fun! I have a couple tips and tricks in my gift wrapping tutorial to help you get that gift wrapping just right, and hopefully make the Holiday season a little easier all round!

The papers that I have used in my gift wrapping tutorial are all our own designs and available for sale at Spoonflower online. There are three different Holiday designs – a bright geometric design in reds and oranges, a cool grey woodland animal design and a sumptuous green leaf design. All are perfect for the Holiday season though would not look out of place on birthday gifts, wedding gifts or Thanksgiving gifts. You can purchase each in a 6 feet roll, making your gift wrapping even more simple. If you are on the lookout for fun gift topper patterns and tutorials, take a peek at our DIY projects over here. The template for the paper bow can be found here. Enjoy the video and happy gift wrapping my friends! ~ Lia

Back to the TopSuch a lovely site 🙂 May I ask where you get the woodgrain paper ?
Thank you in advance !
It’s available for purchase on Spoonflower: http://www.spoonflower.com/giftwrap/4325138-woodgrain-grey-by-liagriffith. We have two other woodgrain printables here on the site as well: https://liagriffith.com/kids-printable-gift-wrap/, https://liagriffith.com/fall-gift-wrap/
I really love the bottle bags. I hate to pay so much for them when it is clear they are inexpensive to make and yours can be customized. Thank you!
Exactly! Making your own is way less expensive and so fun to customize! So glad this has been helpful for you 🙂
Thank you for some brilliant ideas. The one for the bottle is awesome, I will never buy a bottle bag again!!
So glad you enjoyed them!! The bottle bag is my personal favorite, playing around with your own gift wrap patterns is so much better than buying a pre-made bag at the store! 🙂
Many Thanks,
Lia
Hi Lia:
