The Best Ways to Gift Wrap Jewellery

If you’ve bought jewellery as a gift, we’ve come up with the best ways to wrap your purchase.

Gifts Boxes

If you don’t like wrapping paper, a gift box makes it easy to achieve a neat, professional finish. Simply pop your jewellery box inside the gift box, tie with ribbon and it’s ready to go! There are thousands of varieties available to buy in craft shops or online, from plain colours to vibrant patterns and seasonal designs for Christmas.

Gift Bags

Jewellery is so small in size that you might want to give it some added protection when gift wrapping. A gift bag filled with tissue paper will give your jewellery that extra padding, while also making your gift wrapping feel a little more luxurious. Wrap the jewellery box in as much tissue paper as you like before placing it in the gift bag.

Disguises

Sometimes you don’t want the recipient to guess that you have bought them jewellery – this is quite hard to do if you have wrapped it in a simple gift box! Here are a few ways you can disguise jewellery with your gift wrap:

• If you are giving multiple gifts, buy a large gift box and wrap all the items together in a bundle.
• A gift bag is also a great way to disguise a jewellery gift. Hide the jewellery, wrapped in tissue paper for protection, at the bottom of the bag, and place another gift on top to hide the jewellery.
• Perhaps you are wondering how to hide an engagement ring before a proposal. A bulky ring box can be tricky to hide in your pocket, but thankfully there are some slim jewellery boxes out there to keep the ring safe and discreetly hidden.  

Finishing Touches

Even if you are not experienced in gift wrapping, a few finishing touches will distract from any untidy edges! Your local craft shop will offer a wide array of accessories to make your gift stand out, including ready-made bows so you don’t have to worry about tying a neat ribbon. Other finishing touches for your jewellery gift could include:

• A gift tag with a personal, handwritten message
• Decorative tape could replace a ribbon
• Wrap your gift box in cellophane for an extra special finish
• If you’re feeling crafty, you could try making your own gift bow with the help of a tutorial
• Sometimes, simplicity is best. Nothing beats a brown paper package tied with string!
