Christmas is not a season it’s a feeling. Said to be the most wonderful time of the year, it seems only right to give great people, better gifts. Although choosing the right gift hamper for Christmas is of significant importance - so is the way you wrap it. Using creativity to make a beautiful container out of a simple gift basket makes the gift much more special to the receiver. Let’s take a look at different wrapping ideas that will help you take your Christmas gift hampers to another level - brought to you by Giftcarnation!
Start with a Festive Base
The bottom layer of your hamper lays a foundation for your wrapping patterns. For example, if you are creating a Christmas gift hampers design, then crepe paper in bright red or green, gold foil wrap, or simple brown jute if you are going for a more organic look. If your hamper is in a basket, then line it with velvet or faux fur so that it resembles the holiday season to a certain extent.
Example: Secret Santa Gift Hamper
The Hand-Woven Santa-shaped macrame Basket in this hamper is eye-appealing so it is best to stress the exotic design of this basket. This basket should be covered with translucent red cellophane so that basket decorations and accessories are visible. End this project with a glittery golden bow for added cuteness.
Layering with Personalized Touches
Gift hampers for Christmas are made special when they are personalized in any way. Examples of so gifts are handwritten notes, photocards, and tags among others. These details are put in layers and it gives a kind of personal space element to the overall structure of the hamper.
Example: Christmas Bouquet Gift Hamper
This stylish basket contains Santa Stuff Toy, Mini Nutella, and chocolates. Tie the recipient's name on the toy’s neck with a ribbon, or any other item that can act as a tag. Place everything in a helping hamper and wrap the entire hamper with a transparent sheet with Christmas stickers all over, finally, garnish it with candy cane ribbons. Slightly secure a note or a Polaroid image to the ribbon for that personal feel on a gift.
Embrace Eco-Friendly Wrapping
Reuse and recycle wrapping is becoming more popular because it is practicing what you preach when it comes to the planet. Pack the gift hampers with kraft paper, reusable fabric, or recycled boxes to have a more environment-friendly and tasty look.
Example: Christmas Gift Ideas Hamper
Sustainable wrapping comes in handy with the Reusable Season’s Greetings Box in this hamper. Indeed, you do not need to do much extra to dress up the box; simply attach a ribbon and pine or holly. Since there are many gifts inside, the box itself is an environmentally friendly showpiece and requires no further embellishment.
Play with Colors and Textures
When people tend to think of Christmas, they immediately picture gleaming hues and rich touch. Choose pairs such as red and green, gold and white, or silver and blue. For an additional feel, use ribbons and twine as the woven material, or incorporate lace into the mix. Some additional enhancements to think about are miniature ornaments or bells.
Example: Christmas Gift Hamper
This best Christmas gift hamper is presented in a Red and Green Velvet Suede Basket. Emphasize this luxurious look by casing it in metallic mesh wrap and, when tying the bow, using a two-tiered band – gold and red. Affix a small wooden spoon such as the one included in the hamper to the bow for a rather theme-specific highly appealing look.
Incorporate LED Fairy Lights
To add a little bit of fairy touch to it, wrap some LED fairy lights around the hamper. Lanterns are non-hazards and most importantly require batteries to make your presentation look like a fairy tale.
Use Fabric Wraps
Furoshiki, which is a Japanese fabric wrapping method, is a popular and sustainable idea for gift wraps. For a delicious look, choose prints that are appropriate for the holidays, or use silk or satin for a fancier look on your hamper.
Top It Off with a Festive Bow
In case you don't want to wrap, you can complete the perfect Christmas gift hampers look with just a beautifully tied bow. Oversized velvet bows, clusters of ribbons, or metallic-look bows are perfect to give that last touch of the festive season. These ones are the final touch in the look of the outfit that pulls everything together.
