Be like a pineapple....
Posted by Lyndall Smith on
Be like a pineapple.... Stand tall Wear a crown Be sweet on the inside Pineapples were once a sought-after commodity and a status symbol, often presented as a novel and expensive gift. Carry on this tradition with our Pineapple Luxury Wrapping Paper - elevate your gift giving! Giftwrapit's pineapple print matte gold wrapping paper is inspired by holidays spent at my Nanna's pineapple farm in Queensland, Australia. The matte gold represents the genteel inside environment, a world of chintz, gilt and fine china which I've contrasted by choosing the indelible rusty stain of red volcanic farm soil for the colour of the pineapples.

Wrap up Valentines with Love
Posted by Lyndall Smith on
At Giftwrapit we have lots of ideas and options for Valentines Day gift wrapping. Are you a down-to-earth, crafty, 'from the heart' giver? We would recommend something that you can personalise, like our chalkboard boxes or gift tags, tied with twine or ribbon. If you fancy something with more bling, you could pair our beautiful Valentines gift wrap in metallic white and pale silver small heart print with one of our shiny red pull bows. This combination is a showstopper but so easy to create. It doesn't matter what the cost of the gift is, it is the thought that counts and nothing reinforces that better...
Copper is the new gold!

Looking for a metallic gift wrapping look that is warm, modern and luxurious? You can't go wrong with copper. Copper has been very popular in homewares over the past year and is a versatile neutral with a bit of bling. You can use copper or rose gold accents to pair with a classic white or black scheme or go tone-on-tone with copper in different shades and texture. Giftwrapit have superb quality multi-toned copper and gold marbled gift wrap which looks fabulous layered with copper ribbon, bows or gift tags.
Store-cupboard Standby Gift Bags complete with banter
Posted by Lyndall Smith on
We absolutely love these sarcastic, multi-purpose gift bags. Just add a bottle of wine and tick the appropriate (or inappropriate) box with the included marker pen and you turn what could be a rather dull gift into one with personality. The bags themselves are made of a cream canvassy calico fabric and have contrasting black woven handles with the text printed in black. Â Who doesn't love a bit of pre-printed banter! My favourite is 'Who Needs a Reason?' You can be as rude, honest or louche as you dare! Â
