Holiday gift wrapping is one of those things that you either love or hate. For me, it’s therapeutic, I just get so much joy out of an aesthetically wrapped christmas present.
This is the first year i’m putting time into curating a gift wrapping theme for the holidays, and for those of you who are on the opposite end of the spectrum – who just want to get it over with – I think I have the perfect solution to the guesswork out of holiday gift wrapping; I rounded up 7 holiday gift wrapping themes so hopefully hopefully this helps!
Looking for more holiday gift ideas and decor? Right this way.
Pink & Green
Pink and green wrapping has a fun, dreamy holiday feel to it. The faux cedar gift toppers are a great touch that will really bring this theme to life!
A subtle twist on the traditional prints, think greens, reds, plaids and cozy Christmas prints like reindeers, Santas and nutcrackers! Loving these plaid gift boxes!
Earthy Tones
If you prefer something more neutral, you can’t go wrong with earthy tones like blacks, browns and creams. You can accent with fun bows, and textured ribbons along with faux stems or tree clippings!
PRO TIP:
As a rule of thumb, always remember to check the length of the roll you’re ordering. You’ll always pay a little more from an independent seller versus a Hallmark find, but make sure you know exactly how much you’re getting out of your gift wrap!
Traditional with a retro twist, vintage Santa gift wrapping will bring holiday cheer to your loved ones before their gifts are opened!
Traditional
I’m a big fan of traditional wrapping paper, there’s just something about the classics. I love vintage reds/browns/greens and accenting with fun bells and bows.
Chic Florals
If you like neutral holiday gift wrapping with a flair, muted florals are a great theme. To add a subtle pop of color, pick a ribbon shade that brings out the patterns in the wrapping!
Coastal Chic
Living at the beach, coastal print and blues and whites are super cute, especially for gift giving! I love this Baltimore wrapping paper or this fun crab print!
Vintage Santa
It’s like a can of classic coca-cola, it never goes out of style! Loving the vintage gift tins, or retro print paper!
