Wrapping Christmasgifts – this is a task that some of us hate, but some of us also LOVE.

I love to prettify the present, add lovely curly bows and ribbons, making the gifting experience just that little bit more special for all involved. However, wrapping techniques can stagnate – so I’ve been googling for some new and beautiful Christmas gift wrapping ideas. Here are nine ideas for you to get your teeth into!
