You’ve gone to all the trouble of picking out the perfect read for your loved one this Christmas,so it’s only right that your gift wrapping should match!
We have scoured the internet (and our own brains) to bring you some super cute ways to wrap your books this Christmas.
Reindeer Wrapping – This one is perfect for kids or the young at heart!
What you need:
Book, Brown Paper, Black Paper, Red Paper or Felt Pen, Black Felt Pen, Sticky-Tape.
Step 1: Wrap a book in brown paper.
Step 2: Cut out ears, antlers & nose.
Cut 2 slightly oval half-circle shapes from the brown paper
Cut 2 antlers from black paper. We freestyled ours, but you can draw them out and then cut if you like.
Cut a circle from the red paper. You can skip this if you are using a red felt pen.
Step 3: Start Assembling! We have a quick video showing you how.
Using sticky tape, attach antlers, then ears & nose (or draw on your nose). Draw on your eyes.
Add a ribbon as a little scarf to keep him warm on winter nights and you’re done!
Feel free to be creative and draw on other little details like nostrils and a smile.
Little Words of Love – Perfect for anyone you are giving 3 (or more) books to!
This one is super easy. Wrap 3 or more books, tie them together with a ribbon, and write a Christmassy message on them! We used stickers, but felt-pen or cut out letters could do a great job as well.
Some suggestions for Christmassy Words: 3 books: Joy | 4 Books: Xmas | 5 Books: Merry or Holly
Wrap it IN words – This is just perfect for anyone!
Just find a book, photocopy some pages (our preferred size is A3) and you have beautiful wordy Christmas paper! Add a bow or a cute little Christmas picture and you’re done!
Here’s some pretty examples from the internet….
