First off, let me just say, I love to wrap. If I could make a living out of it, I would. It's just so fun to me. It's like artwork.

Some of my tips....
-Recycle bags and bows from previous years. This way, have lots to choose from and mix and match each year. (This is also helpful on the budget.)
-Create your own tags from pretty card stock.
-Create personalized wrapping paper. You can buy brown paper wrapping paper or plain white wrapper paper. If you have kiddos, they can draw on it or using paint, you could have them add their hand prints (turn into reindeer) or fingerprints (make into snowmen). If you don't have kiddos, you could glue black and white photos onto the paper or even use stamps to add pizazz.
-Use tissue paper to wrap. Lay a couple layers of tissue paper (different colors and/or patterns work well) flat. Sit the item in the middle of the paper. Bring up all sides and gather it at the top. Use a ribbon to secure the tissue paper at the top. This works great for small trinkets!
-Wrap in a gift itself. You could wrap in a tote bag, basket, or even a Rubbermaid container.
-Attach a trinket to the bow. A small toy works great for kiddos or you could attach an ornament to packages for adults.
