Top 5 Kawaii Gift Wraps

So you have worked hard to find that perfect gift for your family and friends, now how to wrap them?

Wrapping paper is the equivalent to that cherry on top of an ice cream sundae, it just makes it that much more special. A good quality paper, with a gorgeous design is going to heighten the pleasure of both giving and receiving gifts.

With 1000's of designs available, and almost everywhere selling rolls of the stuff this time of year, it can get a little over whelming when picking the one you like most, only to walk into the next store and like theirs even more... skip to the night before Christmas, whilst your sat surrounded by over 50 rolls and not having a clue which to finally use, or is that just me?

I always over buy, I can't buy enough cute wrap. It being so inexpensive really doesn't help. I can confidently say at least 20% of my spend during winter is on gift wraps, none of which is saved for the following year. I'm so wasteful 😓

This time I'm thinking more carefully on the one choose, I've got it narrowed to these 5.



Christmas Characters

I love Tofu Cute, their characters are too cute for words.

This festive wrap is full of their designs. Gold paper adds that extra touch of festive charm.

You get 2 sheets of wrap and matching gift tags too. 

Anyone would be lucky to receive their gift in this wrap, they also have some amazing gift ideas too, just in case you have yet to find that perfect present.

Get it from Tofu Cute for £2.50

Pastel Alpaca Skies

Another great choice from Tofu Cute, is this Alpaca print. Still featuring some of their other cute characters. 

This one is my personal favorite for our pastel festivities, all our gifts will look fabulous under our tree this year.

As this hasn't got any actual Christmas features this is a fabulous wrap for any gift, no matter the occasion.

Again with this design you receive 2 sheets of paper and matching gift tags.

Get it from Tofu Cute for £2.50


Unicorn Wrapping Paper 

This charming Unicorn design is currently available from M&S. 

Frolicking across a starry night sky, this wrap still gives off a Christmas feel, without being overly Christmas that is, so it could be used for all types of gifts. 

The pack contains two sheets and 2 gift tags.

Get it here from Marks & Spencers for £1



Hello Kitty Wrap

Hello Kitty looks so sweet in her winter coat.

This blue paper is filled with pastel snow flakes, Hello Kitty with her skates, in her skates, and look how adorable My Melody looks a the side of her.

Actually printed in 2005, this sheet is vintage. Sadly it doesn't come with tags and has only 1 sheet.

This is definitely a paper to gift that special someone. Ideally an Hello Kitty fan who can appreciate your choice, and not just tear it straight up.

Get it from Etsy for £5.30

Cookie Gingerbread

I love the design of this fun wrap. Those happy little gingerbread men and women are so kawaii!

With a pale blue candy stripe, and complimenting heart and star cookies, your gifts will look amazing wrapped in this paper.

Each pack comes with 2 sheets of wrap, 2 matching tags and as a bonus you also receive 2  matching stickers. 

Get them at Not on the high street for £4



Bonus Featurette :

FREE PRINTABLE GIFT WRAP

So whilst I was searching wrap, I came across a blog called Bespoke Bride, and they are currently allowing you to download and use this amazing wrap for your gifts this year.

As you need to print it off yourself, it will mean a restriction on the size of items you could wrap. 

Would be fantastic for all those stocking fillers though.

With 4 different colours to print off, what are you waiting around for?
