Best of ConfettiStyle–Creative Gift Wrap Ideas

GIFT WRAP-2

Hello friends.  I wish you could be with me as we are sailing our way to Aruba.  As promised, it’s Best of ConfettiStyle week here on the blog.  Today I’m sharing my passion for gift wrapping and five of the most popular gift wrap posts.

Ribbon Tie Boxes

Paper is not always a requirement when it comes to wrapping gifts.  I created these Ribbon Tie Boxes in a flash and boy have they gotten lots of love on Pinterest.  You can find the set of nesting boxes at the Container Store and all of the ribbon came from my favorite ribbon source, May Arts.

Flower Band Gift Wrap

This Flower Band giftwrap project was inspired by a cake design I spotted on Pinterest.  I use a variety of faux flowers and made a beautiful flower wrap for a plain white gift box.  If you’re looking for a creative way to wrap a gift for a wedding or baby shower, this idea is great.

Signature Colors

Way back in 2012 I wrote a blog post about wrapping gifts in my signature colors.  Much like Tiffany & Co. I have a signature wrap.  My go-to colors are red and hot pink and I’m always looking for wrapping paper and ribbon in that color combo. If you spot any, let me know.

Paper Lace Bands

If you’re not a ribbon hoarder collector like I am, my Paper Lace Band project shows you how to make a paper wrap for gifts.  I used the Fiskars Advantedge Paper Punch System and scrapbook paper to make these pretty gold paper bands.

DIY Holiday Wrapping Crate

Last Christmas I made this DIY Holiday Wrapping Crate to hold the papers, ribbons and tags that I used to wrap our gifts.  I embellished the crate with a Merry & Bright decal and added wheels so I could easily move it from room to room. The crate will get a refresh this Christmas and I’ll share it during the 2nd annual Merry & Bright Holiday Home Blog Tour I’m hosting with Kellie from Design Asylum.

My Blog Goals for 2016

Blog Goals-2016.002

It’s hard to believe that I started this blog almost 6 years ago.  I’ve enjoy the process from day one and while I’ve found myself getting caught up in the ‘their doing this’, ‘their doing that’ game along the way, I’ve tried to stay true to what my mission was.

 My goal from the start was to share and inspire and today that goal remains the same.  One of my passions is interior design and I want this blog to motivate and inspire you with your own decorating.  Entertaining, whether on a small or large-scale is something I love and I want to share unique and creative entertaining ideas with you.  I’ve been a crafter all my life and through this blog I plan to share fun and easy projects with you.  And when it comes to creative gift wrapping, my passion soars and I want to show you how to gift in style. ConfettiStyle is a lifestyle blog meant to enhance your life.

So, what do I have planned for ConfettiStyle in 2016?

Over the last couple of years I’ve featured several design series here on the blog and many will continue in the new year.   In the Design Chat series I’ll continue to answer your design questions and offer up advice, solutions and inspiration to help you tackle it like a pro.

  The ConfettiStyle Design Guide series lets me share my design knowledge with you in more detail and will include topics like The Best Paint Colors For Decorating, Selecting Lighting For Your Home, Organizing & Decorating a Home Office and Small Space Decorating Secrets Designers Use.

Another fun series you’ll continue to see is Product + Inspiration.  This is where I share a popular home decor item along with inspirational photos and decorating tips for that item.  This series just might make you look at an item in a new way.

I slacked a bit (ok, a lot) last year on my Gift Wrap Inspiration posts but have lots of fun, new gift wrap ideas to share with you in 2016.

A new series you’ll see on the blog is called Behind The Blog.  I’ve made lots of friends and contacts through my blog and want to share them all with you.  In this series, I’ll do a personal interview with bloggers I admire, giving you a glimpse into their blog, their inspiration and their talents.

And finally, I’ll continue to bring you crafting and DIY projects, fashion finds, easy decorating ideas and so much more–all the things I’m passionate about.

Thank you so much for stopping by ConfettiStyle each day.  Good things are coming in 2016!
