Creative DIY Kraft Gift Wrapping Ideas - part four

Monday, 16 December 2019


This will be our last post for the holidays featuring DIY gift wrapping ideas using our everyday kraft bags and boxes. In this post, all of our gift wrapping ideas take on a Frozen theme and we think that Elsa and Anna would like all of them! 


White paint markers were used to decorate all of these kraft bags and boxes



This magnetic closure gift box was embellished with a variety of different "snowflakes" to create a simple one of a kind design and tied up with a ribbon so there would be no peeking! 


The handmade Santa gift topper works as a gift tag holder.


We added fresh foliage to our gift wrapping in this blog post and here's one more idea for how to work it into your holiday gift wrapping ...


We drew a branch and ornament onto the top of this kraft gift box and then incorporated a piece of fresh cedar and an ornament gift toppers for a 3-D effect. We chose to use this narrow ribbon on the gift box so that the illustration/fresh foliage/ornament would take centre stage in the overall presentation.



Got pom poms? Why not glue a few onto a kraft gift box to look like snow balls. Add some snowflakes with a white paint marker, a striped ribbon and a hand decorated ornament as a gift topper and you are done.



If you are using a smaller box like this kraft folding set up box, adding a design (or to/from message) to the front of the box gives you more space on the top of the box for ribbon and a gift topper.



No need to buy an additional gift tag with this gift wrapping idea. We punched a hole in this kraft paper shopper and drew a "gift tag" into the bag's design before adding the twine to the faux tag.






So that's a wrap for holiday gift wrapping inspiration with our kraft boxes and bags. We hope that you've been inspired!

Kraft packaging products are a customer favourite during the holiday season. 

We've taken a number of our plain everyday kraft bags and boxes and using a few basic items like paint pens, ribbon and twine to turn them into creative holiday gift wrapping.

This magnetic gift box features a photo that is held in place using a striped ribbon and finished off with a fresh piece of cedar and decorative tape.

Here's a close up showing how the photo was sliced so that the ribbon could be inserted. Decorative washi tape is not extremely sticky so we used two sided tape to hold the cedar and washi tape in place.

Using a white paint marker a wreath design was drawn onto this paper shopper to create a "frame" for a photo.

The photo was cut out as a circle and attached to the bag using 3-D foam tape to give it a little more dimension.

To make your own village of houses you will need kraft paper lunch bags, a pencil, paint marker, a hole punch and twine. Fold the top of the bag as shown and punch two holes so that the twine can be added later.

We used a pencil to first sketch out an outline and then followed up with the paint marker to complete the house design.
