🎄🌟Easy Christmas Gift Wrapping Ideas

Get creative this holiday season with these easy Christmas gift-wrapping ideas. From simple and elegant to fun and festive, find inspiration for wrapping your gifts in style.

I’m going to share some quick gift-wrapping decorating ideas with all of you. I grabbed a few empty boxes and my red and brown gift paper. Although I’m not a professional when it comes to wrapping paper, I thought I would share some decoration ideas with all of you. I had all of my materials on hand, but a lot of these are fairly cheap when purchased at a craft store. Let’s decorate!


Check out the video tutorial


 Materials

  • Wrapping paper
  • Mini garland
  • Acrylic paint
  • Paintbrush
  • Decorative gems
  • Twine or craft rope
  • Decorative tape
  • Tape
  • Hot glue
  • Scissors
  • Wooden Christmas mini decorations (such as a mini wood wreath and an ornament)

Gift wrap decoration number one

For the first design, I am using brown wrapping paper, tape, red paint, green paint, white paint, two wooden Christmas decorations, hot glue, and twine to create this design.


To start, cut your wrapping paper to the appropriate size and wrap your box with it.


First, use your paintbrush to apply the paint to your wooden Christmas decorations. Then, take your twine and wrap it around your gift. Tie it off. Use just a little hot glue and glue your mini wooden wreath over your twine.

Next, string an extra piece of twine through the hole of your wooden ornament. Pull your twine through, tie it off, and create a bow. I decided to use my wooden ornament as a gift tag.



This design is complete.

Gift wrap idea number two

You will need wrapping paper, craft gems, and decorative tape.


Start by wrapping your gift. I chose to use red wrapping paper. 


Next, take your decorative tape take a section, and apply it across the middle of your paper.



After you have applied your tape, take your craft gems and begin to apply them onto your paper. I used just a little hot glue when adding my gems onto my paper.



That is it! This one is a very simple design and so easy to create.


Gift wrap idea number three

You will need one wooden Christmas decoration, ribbon, twine, and one mini ornament.


Begin by adding your wrapping paper to your gift. Next, wrap a section of your ribbon around your paper. Cut off any remaining ribbon and use hot glue to secure the ribbon together.

After that, take a small section of your twine and wrap it around your paper. Before tying it off, add your mini ornament to your twine. Then, take your wooden decoration and pull it through your twine. Finally, tie it off. 


Your gift wrap is complete.


Gift wrap idea number four

You will need decorative tape, acrylic paint, hot glue, tape, and a mini wreath to create this design.


Begin by cutting your wrapping to size, and wrapping your box.


After, take two small sections of your decorative tape, and apply them to the top, and bottom of your wrapping paper.



To add your mini wreath to the middle section of your box, use your hot glue.

Finally, use your paintbrush to apply your white acrylic paint. You can add a few dots around your mini wreath to give it a more festive look.


I hope that you have enjoyed these simple gift-wrapping decoration ideas. I also tested out opening each gift without damaging the decorations. I opened and removed the top area that I taped down, and the gifts were easily removed.
