An Artful Exchange
Tired of giving generic gifts or trying to find something for the person who already has everything? Why not channel that energy into a simple, thoughtful gift with an unexpected presentation?
Unique textiles and other nontraditional wrappings can enhance one’s sense of wonder and enrich the gifting experience. Wrapping with creative intention is a fun and easy way to live a more artful life!
Eco-Friendly Wrapping
Old maps make extremely “smart”, eco-friendly wrapping paper. Expand on this idea and use anything interesting like old blueprints or sheet music, or even stunning magazine pages.
Re-Purposed Artwork
A 3 year old’s painting translates to meaningful wrapping paper for a close relative.
Accessorize!
At the gallery, we have artful tassels that can really elevate a gift, such as a bottle of wine.
Think Outside the Gift Bag
Find an interesting vessel for your gift. You can re-purpose something, or you can actually create something yourself, like one of these artful paper boxes (we happen to be having a class on this in March, click here.)
A Whimsical Twist
We loved this idea from Crafted by Lindy. What a wonderful way to turn something generic, like a candy bar, into a distinctive gift with whimsical cotton fabric.
That's a Wrap
Browse our assortment of exquisite scarves for a chic way to wrap a gift. For inspiration, check out the book Wrapagami by Jennifer Playford, which explores this Japanese-derived tradition.
