Essential Items for the Gifting Season Ahead
"HOW TO WRAP_" is a new brand that rethinks the art of wrapping for contemporary times. Its sophisticated designs and diverse variations are capturing attention from both men and women. The second product release features three types of wrapping paper and four kinds of message stickers, both of which are ideal for the upcoming season.
The "GRAPH" series utilizes a single-color offset printing press, typically used for items like graph paper, to apply ruled lines to high-quality paper and craft paper, reminiscent of notebook rulings. The elegant, regular arrangements—such as alphabet grids and graph lines—create a three-dimensional effect when wrapped, further enhancing the patterns. Their simple designs also lend themselves well to customization with masking tape or other embellishments.
Complementing these wrapping papers are the original message stickers. Crafted with letterpress printing on natural, unbleached Japanese paper, their refined appearance adds an extra layer of joy to the gift-wrapping process. The embossed messages, a hallmark of letterpress printing, possess a distinct presence that invites touch. The four available messages are "THANKS SO MUCH," "CONGRATULATIONS," "HAPPY BIRTHDAY," and "MERRY CHRISTMAS." They also include space for a recipient's name, making it easy to add a "gift" touch to any bag or package.
With these exquisitely designed wrapping papers and stickers, the upcoming gift season is sure to be even more delightful.
