HOW TO
WRAP AWKWARD GIFTS

Take your gift-wrapping game up a level with these pro tips for wrapping tricky presents with flair, from mugs and jumpers to wine bottles

How to wrap a mug

A gifting must-have, mugs are one of the trickier items to wrap neatly, thanks to their awkward-shaped handle and top opening. Whether you choose a novelty mug, such as our colour-changing Percy Pig mug, or a stylish on-trend ombré mug, try this clever wrapping technique to create a paper sleeve to present your gift artfully. For the final flourish, fill the mug with treats, such as individual sachets of hot chocolate, marshmallows or herbal tea bags.

How to wrap a jumper

There’s something about the squishy shape that makes knitwear devilishly difficult to wrap. Cut yourself some slack and get on board with our beautiful gift boxes. Not only are they the easiest way to ensure neat edges, they also make great storage options for the recipient, too. Don’t forget tissue paper and ribbons for the ultimate professional finish – printed or metallic designs will add a luxurious feel.

How to wrap a bottle

Try this clever hack for ensuring a neat base and a decorative open top when wrapping bottles. Roll the bottle across tissue paper positioned at an angle, while pleating the tissue at the bottom as you go. Twist the tissue at the top and secure with metallic twine or ribbon for extra wow factor. Whether you opt for prosecco or our showstopping light-up snow globe gin liqueurs, present the wrapped bottle in a gift bag for the perfect finishing touch.
