Make Your Gift Wrapping as Personal as the Gift

• Containers and More: Get creative with your choice of containers and go paperless. Decorative hatboxes combined with coordinating bows make beautiful - and useful gifts.
  
• Add Some Charm: Find a charm that fits the occasion to adorn the bow. Combine with a gift of a plain bracelet and add to it over the years.
  
• Mix and Match: Instead of using just one pattern of wrapping paper on a single gift, go for two or three papers that coordinate in either color or pattern, but not necessarily both.
  
• What's Old is New: Like to reuse gift bags? Even ones that have been damaged can be recycled if you cut it apart to use for wrapping paper.
  
• Just a Hint: Hint at what's inside the gift by attaching a small coordinating item to the bow. For example, use a wooden spoon on a gift of cookware or a screwdriver on a gift of do-it-yourself books.
