Christmas Wrapping!

You either hate wrapping all the wonderful presents you have bought your family and friends for Christmas, or you revel in it! I for one really don't like wrapping and am not much good at it, unlike my sister who is very good and i'm always asking her to help me wrap the more tricky items.
 
But what makes the wrapping process somewhat easier is knowing you are wrapping them in beautiful paper and assorted wrapping accessories such as ribbon. So I thought i'd give you a taste as to what is out there to buy on the high street, if you have yet to go out and buy any wrapping items yet.
 
 
PAPERCHASE


Paperchase are doing 3 for 2 on some of their Wrapping Paper, with these designs that i've picked out being £3.50 each. So depending on your budget this may be either a lot to spend on wrapping paper, it may be an okay amount or you may even think it is cheap. Nevertheless Paperchase have some great designs to choose from.
 
The Red Gift Wrap Accessory Box costs £5.00 and contains: Four 10 metre ribbons, one 5 metre decorative ribbon, 3 sheets of foil wrap, shredded foil, star confetti, 10 gift tags and 10 gift bows. So everything you would need to decorate your gifts, this accessory box also comes in Gold, Silver, Black.
 
They have these Green Tree Christmas Confettifor £1.75 which I think is a nice added touch to put in someones Christmas card or even decorate the dining table where you are going to have your Christmas lunch, although this could get messy.
 
 
MARKS AND SPENCER
 
 
I like shopping in Marks and Spencer around Christmas time, have no idea why but they always seem to do nice things in there this time of year. Their Wrapping Paper selection is very nice actually, I wish i'd got some from there this year. I particularly like the holographic snowflake one in the middle there. Their wrapping paper has been reduced down to £1.75 now so grab some now.
 
These 3 Red Ribbons to wrap your lovely gifts in, retail for £2.50 and would be a great addition to make your gifts look even more special and even more festive.
 
These fun 50 Peel Stick Present Labels can be used in a couple of ways. There are larger stickers which can be used as labels for presents, and there are also small stickers like you can see in the picture which can be used for decoration. Best part is they are now reduced to 75p!
 
 
HOBBYCRAFT

 
 
I am in love with this Bumper Gift Wrap Set it contains 4 rolls of wrapping paper, all in different patterns, 4 sets of ribbons, gift tags and twine. Everything that you need for all your wrapping. You can get this set in red and white too if you'd prefer that. Retailing at Hobbycraft for £5.00.
 
This very cute Reindeer film is great if you want to wrap something like homemade cookies or biscuits, cellophane can be very useful for this time of year. And I love the reindeer print on it, so very festive. This retails for £1.50.
 
These Silver Gift Bows are a great staple for Christmas wrapping, always have a bag of these handy in many colours. These particular ones are in silver and retail for £2.00 for 12 of them. These are also on 3 for 2 offer and come in different colours.
 
 
Merry Christmas and Happy Wrapping!
