Images and Styling by Justina Blakeney
With Holidays around the bend, I wanted to share some earth friendly gift wrapping ideas as wrapping can often times be a wasteful endeavor. Here I have used recycled kraft paper as the base for every wrapped gift. Kraft paper is very inexpensive and I love the look of it.
For decor once the gift is wrapped, I love to use items that people will keep and reuse or items that can be discarded into the compost– so as decor I have used real, live leaves and flowers, broaches, incense and doilies- not only so they make the gift look special, but they become a part of the gift, too.
I use Japanese Washi tape, instead of the plastic stuff and customized boring envelopes by gluing vintage wallpaper pieces to their interior.
Now that I’ve got the wrapping done, I’ll I have to do is make all the presents ;-)
design traveller says
simple brown wrapping paper and lace / doilies… great idea :)
sisiko says

sole alberti says
I love this! Such great ideas! Now I just need some ideas for homemade presents! xoxo
Elizabeth says
Love the incense sticks – had not seen that idea before. :)
Justina Blakeney says
Elizabeth, Sole, Will and Design Traveller– thanks so much for your comments, I love how all of you like different things about the wrapping. ;-) warms my little heart…
Bekka says
Those gifts look gorgeous! The stars are my fave!
Justina Blakeney says
Thanks Bekka! I was inspired to do this when I finished my style play work shop #3 shoot- cause I had the wrapped gift… so much fun…
Charissa says
Justina, this is just stunning. I write a blog about gift wrapping, and it’s rare that I come across a collection of ideas that I jive with as much as these. Right down my alley. Thank you, thank you! I think my readers will love seeing these!
septi says

Bianca says
i keep picking different favorites. these are super delicious!
Anonymous says
What fantastic ideas…sure beats the comic newspaper wrappings we used in the forties.
But I’ll bet Justina could even spruce that up.
