This lacy watermark tissue is some of my favourite to use for wrapping. It's made from rayon fibres (yes, the same rayon that clothing is made from!), making it surprisingly stronger and more durable than standard tissue paper. Watermark tissue doesn't tear easily, meaning it's good for wrapping awkward-shaped presents. You can iron it on low heat to completely remove any creases or wrinkles so you can reuse a sheet over and over again. 💕 Find this paper in the Snowflakes + Bunnytails coordinated gift-wrapping kit that's currently available in my shop.

These delightfully fluffy poofs of feathers are actually gift toppers. They're adhesive on the back, so you can easily stick them atop a present in place of a bow. So fun! 💕 You can find them in the Snowflakes + Bunnytails coordinated gift-wrapping kit that's currently available in my shop. Click the link in my bio to buy!⠀

Happy New Year, and happy birthday to all you folks who were born in January! Here's a winter birthday gift-wrapping look just for you.⠀

After the glitter and shine of the holidays, I'm in the mood for a clean winter look. Here, a cool, marble-patterned paper is paired with a faux-fur pompom gift topper and grey velvet ribbon for a touch of texture and warmth. The birthday card features a white brick wall, making the whole combo very home-interiors inspired.⠀

Where to Find It:⠀
◾️ WRITING ON THE WALL BIRTHDAY CARD, $4.50 US, ⠀
◾️ FAUX FUR POMPOM IN BLACK MINK, $4.99 US, ⠀
◾️ MARBLE WRAPPING PAPER, $9 US per 3 sheets (19" x 27"), ⠀

Just received some paper samples from Shizen Design Handmade Papers for our first box. Aren't they stunning? The gold pebble embossed on the bottom left has always been a favourite of ours, but we're thinking black might give you more variety for wrapping than gold, considering the gold in the other two papers. What do you think?
