A couple of weeks ago Fay and I went to a gift wrapping workshop with a difference. Arona Khan a world renowned gift wrapping expert would be showing up different gift wrapping techniques based on HBO boxsets! I absolutely loved seeing all her methods for wrapping the perfect gift as well as the quirky ways she interpreted each boxset.
I’ve just been sent over some videos that were filmed with Arona on the day so if you’ve picked up a loved one a Game of Thrones boxset this year and have some faux fur handy then this is definitely the one for you…
I really love the idea of making the wrapping match the present and would love to receive a gift with such cool wrapping, plus I would be reusing that faux fur for something creative! If your loved one is more of a True Detective fan then here’s the perfect gift wrapping idea for you…
We were also shown this gift wrap for the series Girls which even included a condom as a witty reference to the series and some rather gorgeous New York themed wrapping paper. Arona showed up how this technique could be adapted with other trims to work with other gifts too.
If you haven’t already wrapped your Christmas gifts why not get creative and try something new. Here are a few more wrapping tips from Arona…
As for my own presents, I haven’t actually wrapped them yet but I’m hoping to do it this evening and will definitely be trying some of Arona’s techniques.
